REVIEWS
CRITIC'S PICK “A daringly frank, funny and affecting new play [...] Mr. Seavey’s portrait of young gay New Yorkers negotiating the sometimes thorny nature of love and intimacy has an arresting, even bruising honesty.” - The New York Times, Read More
“Recalling both the furious politics of Kramer’s AIDS jeremiads and the sentimental pathos of Mart Crowley’s pre-Stonewall classic [The Boys in the Band], Homos is as essential to our moment as those works were to theirs [...] Seavey is dealing with very large ideas that have bedeviled the gay ‘community’ — and everyone else — forever [...] Homos, or Everyone in America [is] a play you should see only if you care about either of its title characters.” - New York Magazine, Read More
“This fascinating and fearless new play brims with universally recognizable emotions, even if they are dressed up in very culturally specific drag [...] Seavey adds his voice with unflinching clarity: He asserts the universal need for love, protection, and real intimacy.” - TheaterMania, Read More
