THE MICHAELS is as hopeful as it is heartbreaking.
Ben Brantley, The New York Times
Nelson builds characters who are rich in spirit and soul and sets them in motion like tops.
Alexandra Schwartz, The New Yorker
Transfixing.
David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter
A tenderly moving drama about a modern dance choreographer facing mortality, and the effect of this brilliant, challenging woman on the people around her.
Diane Snyder, Time Out
In its distinctive way it edges into and out of so many emotional territories and registers; it shows how the epic and the everyday can be close cousins; and how the mundane and shattering can unfold as you wash a glass, or bake a quiche.
Tim Teeman, Daily Beast
Five Stars
Dinner is prepared, songs are sung, stories are told, dances are rehearsed, and the meal is eaten-all amidst conversations about art, death, family, dance, politics, how the world sees America… The play portrays a modesty and an enduring faith in the validity of simple human interaction.
David Walters, New York Theater Guide
Five Stars
Immensely rewarding.
Steven Suskin, New York Stage Review
THE MICHAELS seduces with the details, caught on the fly, of lives well-lived in spite of everything. The play is a balm for troubled spirits.
David Barbour, L & S America
Magnificent.
Christopher Byrne, Gay City News
