On the Verge, or the Geography of Yearning at Walkerspace

Theatre Is Easy - Recommended

"A funny and challenging play by Eric Overmyer…This intellectual romp is currently being performed by an impressive cast in a revival that seems both timely and somewhat overdue…Director Laura Braza guides her actors skillfully through a complex world evoked on a modest stage…Be prepared to laugh one minute, then furrow your brow the next. This rare and groundbreaking play, concerned with history and women's space within it, is worth the trip."

Theatre Reviews Limited - Not Recommended

"Mr. Overmyer's language-based script becomes overburdened with alliterative plays on words and other common literary devices and – after time – waxes somewhat tiresome...Both acts are overly long and the second wobbles off base…The actors grapple with their characters in a heroic fashion and traverse their psyches with the same bravado and skill utilized in the imaginary journey...Unfortunately, there are occasions when the three capable actors seem to lose their footing."
