Trevor -Hugely entertaining tragicomedy... the genius of Jones's] play is how he has so cleverly humanized both characters.- - Chicago Sun Times
The Lily's Revenge -...offers so many incidental pleasures that theatrical time - always a curiously malleable element - seems to contract.- - New York Times
A Map of Virtue -With a Hitchcockian sensibility, Courtney] makes psychodrama out of the mystery of what keeps people together even as imaginations and egos push them apart. Like a souvenir from a fleeting dream, this play will pass over you painlessly, and then it will linger.- - Backstage
