Broadway World - Recommended

"...The three separate tales in Siskind's play take place on the same set, with gray walls and not much in the way of decoration except the distinctive style of furniture revealing difference in time and space. From the center fifties-style couch, to the two high-back office chairs, and ending on a leather sofa, we are taken inside three rooms with a different cast of characters and type of surveillance going on, ultimately proving that Big Brother has always been watching us."

Hollywood Progressive - Highly Recommended

"...Siskind not only expresses these topical points but also expertly interweaves them into extremely complex relationships. The personal, indeed, is political. Trilogy is well-acted and directed by Amanda Conlon and is highly recommended for thoughtful theatergoers who cherish food for thought and love serious, intelligent drama."
