“Rapp’s dialogue is beautiful mayhem, full of mudslops and dogsnakes and hog gravy, and we care just enough about these strange souls to be devastated by their pain…it jolts and haunts all involved in its happy amoralism.”

“This is a theatrical meeting made in heaven.”

“A furious assault on the senses — in the most cathartic way possible.”

"Far more than your typical coming-of-age tale, and it's a performance you wont soon forget."
