"Seo's lighting again suggests the difference of time in the day; the first scene is brighter while the second scene emphasizes the natural afternoon light filling the room, metaphorically suggesting the 'change' in power dynamic between Shawn and Matt as their silhouettes become prominent toward the end of the show.".
- Dr. Yuko Kurahashi, Theatre Reviews
"Ultimately, the play is an emotionally satisfying, visually arresting examination... As a fan of theater, King James hit home as a blue-chip production, visually arresting, two actors finding the sweet spot of comedy and emotional resonance..." — Sharon Eberson, OnStage Pittsburgh
