The Water's Edge Reviews
LA Weekly- Not Recommended
"...Even without its awkwardly-implanted parallel to the Oresteia, Theresa Rebeck's family drama is a hollow disappointment."
Backstage- Somewhat Recommended
"...A nuanced ensemble brings an authentic mix of light and dark to the painful proceedings of a fractured family reunion. Based on the first part of Aeschylus' "The Oresteia"-in which Agamemnon returns home from the Trojan War to meet a bloody fate at the hands of his wife, Clytemnestra-the play never reaches the full dramatic heights of Greek tragedy, but it's a satisfying modern-day rendering."
LAist- Recommended
"...My only quibble with her writing is that she tends to hammer home her points two or three times in a given scene where once would suffice, but overall this is an excellent production of an intriguing play."
The Tolucan Times- Recommended
"...Written with soul searching realism, by Theresa Rebeck, this is a mesmerizingly haunting family drama. Under the edgy and focused direction of Sam Anderson, this gifted cast soars!"
Will Call- Recommended
"...Capably directed by the renowned Sam Anderson, the five member cast inhabit their roles with intensity and passion."
