Admissions Reviews

Chicago Theatre Review - Highly Recommended

"...This production absolutely zips by, pulling out all the stops and taking no prisoners. It’s so cleverly populated with three-dimensional characters, all armed with biting humor and sharply crafted dialogue. This sharp critique of white privilege and liberalism illustrates what can happen when hypocrisy conflicts with personal interests. "

Buzz Center Stage - Highly Recommended

"...Aptly directed by Beth Wolf, that perceptual imbalance between Sherri and Roberta provide the foundation for frequent incisive and wonderfully humorous scenes that take place whenever the two women sit down to review the promotional catalogs being sent to prospective students. Roberta doesn’t really understand why she must include more pictures of Black students in the recruitment material."

Chicago Theater and Arts - Highly Recommended

"..."Admissions," a play by Joshua Harmon now at Citadel Theatre, should have its audiences talking about who, how and why a graduating high schooler is readily admitted to the college of choice."

Splash Magazine - Highly Recommended

"...Author Joshua Harmon's Admission is the kind of play that doesn't just hold a mirror up to its audience-it asks who's being reflected, and who gets to decide what's "fair." In true Harmon fashion, the dialogue crackles with intelligence and discomfort in equal measure."
