Recommendations of Lucinda's Bed

  • Cheryl Bear: Lucinda's Bed

    An honest and revealing look at self worth and the men that affect us. Powerful and well done.

  • John Patrick Bray: Lucinda's Bed

    McCullough has a real gift for blending Realism with the Magic, allowing for humor without falling into sentimentality. Some of the moments in the play will feel *too real* and the magical elements, rather than taking us out of those moments of discomfort, plunges us deeper in, submerging us in the sexual-psychology of the characters in a way that forces us to examine our own without letting us off the hook. I highly recommend this play.

    Alternately raw and funny, LUCINDA'S BED is a masterfully assembled character study, built around a strong and surprisingly flexible design element and a fanciful but robust facility for metaphor. Eminently stageable, relentlessly involving and theatrically ingenious.

    Gripping, imaginative, socially relevant and brutally honest. Easy to produce, great for smaller budgets and a real conversation starter for audiences. Thought about it for weeks after I saw its world premiere at Chicago Dramatists.
