The Ride Down Mount Morgan at Redtwist Theatre

Chicago Reader - Somewhat Recommended

"...The central role calls for charisma and volcanic passions; Robert Dennison's uncertainty and earnestness undercut our understanding of Lyman's appeal for these two women, as does Alex Levy's schematic staging. But Jan Ellen Graves fills out Theodora's wounded dignity and sorrowful wit magnificently."

Time Out Chicago - Somewhat Recommended

"...In Dennison’s interpretation, Lyman seems downright whiny, especially when the actor tries to force an approximation of mental anguish. More successful are Graves and Grandt, who play the two wives with shades of weariness that bring some humanity to otherwise lifeless characters. But, honestly, there’s only so much you can do with a play that manages to suck the fun out of infidelity."

ChicagoCritic - Highly Recommended

"...Miller presents Lyman’s shades as overlaying degrees of veracity. Is he the charming, yet evil narcissist or the struggling misunderstood man? Miller presents Lyman in shades of gray. Dennison effectively shows all sides of this complex man. This most engaging play will get you debating the nature of love and betrayal long after you leave the theatre. Kudos to Redtwist Theatre for mounting this rare gem. The cast did Miller’s problem play justice."

Chicago Stage and Screen - Highly Recommended

"...I myself had never seen a production of this play before and found it a very intense piece by a brilliant writer who surely cared about people and relationships. Redtwist is one of the adventurous theaters that will tackle works like this and as they grow their works get better and better. The shame is that in a small black box theater, space is limited so only those lucky enough to reserve their tickets right away get the opportunity to experience the theater as presented by this strong troupe."
