"Ms. D’Amour’s dark comedy draws a compassionate but unvarnished collective portrait of the underclass of New Orleans, a city where millions of tourists converge to party, little noticing that among the bottles and beads littering the streets are plenty of people who refuse to let the party end, and often pay a hard price for it."—Charles Isherwood, New York Times

 

"Another excellent piece of writing from [a] compelling new voice in American theater."—Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune

"D’Amour’s deep and decidedly soulful work takes us convincingly into the world of the ‘real’ New Orleans. These are the strippers, hookers, and party-animal bartenders who have made an everyday pursuit of the search for what Miss Ruby, their dying substitute mother, calls ‘ecstatic experience.’"—Variety
