“…a lewd title and a tender heart…specific and universal, mirthful and agonizing.” —The New York Times.
“A clever (and extremely funny) play about sex, told in five bite-size parts—each a self-contained story about the different kinds of damage and delight that couples inflict upon one another between the sheets.” —New York Magazine.
“[FIVE TIMES IN ONE NIGHT] is one of the most highbrow sex comedies I’ve seen. It’s smartly and tightly written…While FIVE TIMES IN ONE NIGHT covers a broad swath of history, it’s a strikingly contemporary play.” —CurtainUp.
“…A heartfelt, whimsical look at the reasons we pursue sex and the means we employ in order to have it…this delightful night of one-acts explores the motives and consequences behind the world’s simultaneously most revered and most stigmatized pastime.” —Theater Scene.
