"Keeping with the playwright's original vision of cosmic science fiction set in a living room, scenic designer Wilson Chin and lighting designer Matthew Richards have used the relatively capacious Rattlestick Theatre stage to advantage, dreaming up the perfect backdrop for this flawless production." – Randy Kandel, Show Business Weekly

"Wilson Chin's wonderfully detailed set, Matt Richards's disturbingly atmospheric lights, and Shane Rettig's sweat-inducing sound design enhance the proceedings." – Michael Criscuolo, nytheatre.com

"Michael is a one-book author, reduced to delivering milk in the rural mountain town in Virginia where the family has recently relocated from Washington. His ambivalent feelings about the move are plainly visible in the contrasting details of Wilson Chin's set design for a living room with an ample desk, comfortable window seats and well-stocked bookcases -- as well as stacks of unopened boxes containing personal effects." – Marilyn Stasio, Variety
