Stage Scene LA - Somewhat Recommended

"...Joseph Hayes’ The Desperate Hours may have won a Tony as the Best Play of 1955, but the 67-year-old suspense melodrama is showing its age these days with its stilted dialog and Father Knows Best-meets-Dragnet characters, and some questionable casting choices don’t help its 2022 revival at the Group Rep."

"...So what is so compelling about this story that bridged three art forms so successfully? Well, it’s an absolutely riveting study of people under pressure. Good people and bad people and the lengths they will go to survive."
