Trial by Water presented by A-Squared Theater Workshop at EP Theater

Chicago Reader - Somewhat Recommended

"...The best scenes involve offhanded horseplay between the two brothers at the heart of the story, and it's heartening to see a play about Vietnam that doesn't involve American vets. But too much of the plot is telegraphed far in advance, so though the Grand Guignol developments are sickening, they're not truly shocking."

Time Out Chicago - Recommended

"...The second Chicago opening this fall for Brooklyn-based playwright Qui Nguyen, Trial by Water strikes a more somber tone than his Men of Steel, but explores similar themes (defining morality and responsibility to self versus the greater good) and does so with greater success."
