"...He has put this potentially, problematic work in the hands of talented director Kristina Lloyd, who does the job of keeping things moving over the course of two hours. I say potentially problematic because there are many scenes where ten or twelve actors mount the stage with nothing to do but stand there in a static tableau and wait for their line cues. Many scenes are short, and Lloyd couldn't find the time to set the players to an activity. One of the main criticisms I've had of Shulman's work over the years is that he neglects to envision how his scenes will logistically play to an audience."

"...Moving and powerful, Not One More Foot of Land! documents the tragic unknown history of how the Cherokee nation saw their land stolen from them by the patronizing government. Strong acting and writing help sell this thoughtful production that remains true to the native people."

"...Still, it is a well done ethnic study, with effective projections, colorful costumes (by Ali Funes) and imaginative staging involving native dances, gracefully gliding eagles, drumming and haunting flute strains, directed by Kristina Lloyd."

"...While Shulman's scope is ambitious, and he has clearly done considerable research, a somewhat shorter play, focused on the human cost and moral dilemmas of this tragic incident in American history, would have better served his audience."
