Diversey Harbor presented by Theatre Seven at The Greenhouse Theater Center

Chicago Tribune - Recommended

"...With its brief scenes and hyper-local focus on dating and urban loneliness, “Diversey Harbor” (which has been revised for this second staging) is a lot like David Mamet’s iconic ode to Rush Street coupling, “Sexual Perversity in Chicago, ” albeit without the sexual perversity."

Chicago Reader - Highly Recommended

"...Brian Golden's cast (all returning from the original) resist the urge to overplay the twists in this tale of a mugging that has repercussions for four north-side twentysomethings, and Wegrzyn, thankfully, avoids a meditation on how We're All Connected, a la Paul Haggis's Crash. Compassionate, wry, and filled with small but sharply observed descriptions of Chicago's present and past (a subplot involves the Eastland disaster), Diversey Harbor may end up being as iconic in its own way as Mamet's more dyspeptic portrait of urban singledom."

Windy City Times - Highly Recommended

"...This remount of the Theatre Seven company's 2007 debut production has its work cut out to establish the requisite intimacy in the spacious Greenhouse mainstage, but under Brian Golden's direction, the four-person ensemble navigates its 55 minutes of spartan phrasing, sprinkled with flashes of startling lyricism ( the moment in the gestation of a plan, for example, where “your head feels like it's full of firecrackers” ) , with a skill and delicacy to render this “Chicago love poem” exquisite beyond the most jaded expectations."

Time Out Chicago - Somewhat Recommended

"...Diversey Harbor, Marisa Wegrzyn's very charming and very slight one act of North Side ennui, is a vehicle of a similar make and model. Her four-monolgue play, about a quartet of postundergrad yet-to-wells all tangentially linked to the same murdered girl, gives you a taste of clever young writer and the ambitious theater company she works with."

ChicagoCritic - Highly Recommended

"...Diversey Harbor boasts truthful and emotional performances that gives realism, suspense and mystery to the work. The acting and writing are superb. Diversey Harbor is little marvel that speaks to all of us who love The Windy City—no matter how old we are or how much we fear it."
