Editorial Reviews

The Record

The best work is SEVEN MENUS...the clever staging and the compression of the one-act form give a biting sense of the instability of contemporary urban existence.

Show Business

David Ives has composed an intricate pattern of dialogue, tracing three separate scenes, or are they seductions? It's a well-crafted sextet.
