Boston Stage Notes, James Wilkinson
"That's the kind of production that the Huntington is offering up, directed by Kimberly Senior. It reaches out to you and grabs ahold of your guts. Once it gets it's hooks in you, it only squeezes tighter and tighter. The walls seem to be pressing in on you with no way out. You can't shake free. Then, just as it's becoming unbearable, the play delivers the sucker punch that leaves you on the floor."
WBUR, Carolyn Clay
"In Senior's hands, the interaction starts physical, then moves from booze-fueled camaraderie to booze-fueled rage. And the performances give off a feral sadness that's as distressing as all the aggression."
Theatre Mirror, Julie Anne Whitney
"Director Kimberly Senior masterfully builds, suspends, and expands the tension throughout the play with moments of stillness and breathlessness followed by rapid action and rampant activity."
The Boston Globe, Don Aucoin
"As portrayed by an exemplary cast under the incisive direction of Kimberly Senior, the responses of the workers to layoffs and a subsequent company lockout of union employees at the Reading, Pa., steel tubing factory, where some have worked on 'the floor' for decades range from fear to bewilderment to raw fury."
