"Transcendent. A brilliant area premiere under the sensitive direction of Joe Calarco. Rather than belonging, you sit there for what seems like a precious eternity watching the loneliness puddle around you like a pleated skirt, the prolonged silences stretching before you with no actor or playwright prompted to fill them or distract you from that emptiness of sound and motion.  We bear the characters’ isolation and our own—like mirror images this aloneness reflects back and forth between actors and audience. The mystical miracle of John is that we can sit with that profound loneliness and be okay. Better, even."
