Great reviews of HEADS in Denver!

HEADS has received glowing reviews in Denver -- both the play and the production. Check 'em out! And please send people to the show, if you know anyone who lives in the Denver area.

DENVER POST: "...a gripping fictional drama that raises important questions about our times."

NORTH DENVER TRIBUNE: "Heads shows us four people, each put in an unbearable situation, each reacting differently but appropriately for who they are. The four actors convincingly deliver the raw emotions of fear, anger, desperation, despair, and denial – but also something more – a deeper look at our own humanity."

DENVER EXAMINER: "...I am still haunted by the images that played out on the intimate Denver Victorian stage.... Heads is not easy to watch. The material is difficult, terrifying, and often heart wrenching – and this is the point. If you are looking for an evening of theatre that will get you thinking, that will leave an indelible impression long after the show has ended, and that will move you to tears – then this is for you.... In a season filled with bright musicals and silly comedies – Heads is a welcome, intelligent, and moving drama that is a must see."
