Better than any play I've seen at finding the natural existential anxiety in the frustration and powerlessness of being a movie actor. Offers ample evidence of this dramatist's singular gift for presenting human murkiness with precisely shaded clarity. Impeccably observed. -NY Times. "Smart, sinuous work from a playwright who writes with unshowy depth and unforced menace on a challenging subject." -New York Magazine. "Thoughtful and humorous. Makes sly points about the ironies inherent in the profession of acting and the difficulties of creating a 'true' experience in the totally artificial medium of film.


" -Associated Press. "Heartfelt, incisive, and very moving. Shows us truths from which we can't turn away. Fiercely intelligent, ineffably sad." -Vogue. "A powerful character study. PICKED illuminates humanity's hunger for acceptance and perfection, and satiation on compromise, with artisan-level accuracy. His finest stage drama to date.


" -Talkin' Broadway.
