Completeness Reviews
LA Weekly- Somewhat Recommended
"...Moses eventually makes his underwhelming point about the exponential uncertainties facing any relationship, but not before the belabored abstruseness of his algorithmic metaphor all but sidelines the delightfully engaging performances of a superlative cast. y"

"...The production is excellent and sports a very talented cast in the persons of Steven Klein, Emily Swallow, Nicole Erb and Rob Nagle. First I congratulate them on just memorizing the dialogue. Secondly, with the help of director Matt Pfeiffer, making sense of it all. The set, the lighting, and the costumes are all terrific. My biggest qualm is that the play starts to resemble a theoretical puzzle rather than a play. Over time all that computer-speak gets a bit wearing. Nevertheless I enjoyed myself and the wonderful cast. This may not be everyone's cup of tea but for those who like a challenge and a chance to see some wonderful acting, by all means head down to the Black Dahlia to see this intriguing play."

"...Each of these four principal actors, under the solid direction of Matt Pfeiffer, is absolutely pluperfect. Their certainty, their indignation, their intensity, carries the conversation along at just the right speed, and each of them is consistently believable and likeable."

"...This play must be a roller coaster to interpret, in danger of drowning in Moses's ever-present textual dexterity, a palpable presence that could easily come off as bang-on-the-head pretentiousness. In lesser hands, Completeness might turn out to be anything but complete, but this mounting is blessed with a quartet of exquisitely multilayered, bittersweet performances that honor and match its author's tech-swollen dialogue. His jigsaw puzzle of a play is able to rise above its inherent traps thanks to the commitment of its obviously driven cast, the understated but passionate vision of director Matt Pfieffer, and Darcy Scanlin's incredibly smart, strikingly spare, versatile set design ingeniously filling VS. Theatre Company's challenging playing space."
