"Delicate, moving, piercing, tart, funny, gorgeous. Mr. Eno’s gift may be unmatched among writers of his generation. Glimmers from start to finish." - The New York Times, Read More"Richly engaging and satisfyingly theatrical, with heart and humor. A modern-day equivalent to Thornton Wilder’s Our Town." - TheaterMania, Read More"Utterly spellbinding! Four stars! Will Eno’s dark comic genius inspires all." - Time Out New York, Read More"Middletown is a lusciously written, strangely poignant, dizzyingly modern spin on life." - Newsday, Read More"A play by Will Eno is a testament to the power of words and wordplay.

In his absurdist, abstract drama Middletown [...] Eno offers up an old-fashioned version of smalltown life that is familiar but with a tilt to the surreal." - Chicago Sun-Times
