Death Tax
Pillsbury House Theatre
Star Tribune- Recommended
"..."Death Tax" discusses issues that many of us should be discussing. The ideas are not profound, yet seeing them illustrated in real humanity reminds us that day is coming."

"...Director Hayley Finn's static and sterile production (framed on John Francis Bueche's spartan, blunt-angled, white-on-white set) doesn't do much to ameliorate the script's deficiencies. But she casts the production well, making the journey at least an interesting one."

How Was The Show- Highly Recommended
"...What a cast! The ever-marvelous Wendy Lehr plays Maxine with admirable feistiness, raging against the dying of the light. Her delectable energy animates the play. Tracey Maloney has a single scene as the daughter. She bristles with a thrilling combination of anger and love. Wonderful. As Todd, Clarence Wethern is sweet, handsome - and scarily cynical. The scene in which he puts on a leather jacket and transforms himself is priceless."

Aisle Say Twin Cities- Somewhat Recommended
"...The acting in this production is impressive and the language is precise, yes. But somehow Hnath’s script fails the actors in this Pillsbury production. The set is sparse; we see a nursing home where the elderly go to be preserved instead of to die."
