  • Matt Minnicino: Refuge by Andrew Rosendorf
    “

    The quietness of this play speaks volumes. On the surface a parable for immigration, Andrew's play swells and grows into a grand, elegiac poem about connection, loss, family, fear, freedom, blame, and ultimately humanity. Its world is crafted with the utmost artistry, every smell and sight and sound popping off the page -- fitting in a play that is so much about the places we call home, places we try to make home, and memories of home we carry with us.

  • Ryan Stevens: Refuge by Andrew Rosendorf

    Beautiful and striking in its composition, Refuge combines painterly landscapes and brutal depictions of the struggles for survival at the border, creating an achingly human story that offers no easy answers or empty optimism, but still succeeds in soaring into sublime emotional peaks and valleys. It's theatrical in the best sense of the word, and the kind of immediate, important and imaginative storytelling the American theatre needs more of to evolve.
