This sexy, multi-faceted puzzle of a play travels from East to West and across time, exploring provocative themes in both epic scope and human scale.

“I can't give you a simple answer to that tricky question, but I can tell you this: The fact that we don't is one of the many reasons why I've come to feel that the Windy City is blowing the Big Apple out of its once-secure spot at the top of America's theatrical tree. ”

— Terry Teachout, The Wall Street Journal

“History: gossip well told.” — Elbert Hubbard

“We learn from history that we learn nothing from history.” — George Bernard Shaw

“We celebrate the past to awaken the future.” — John F. Kennedy

“A combination of panache and physical dynamism that I find altogether irresistible.”

“The more I see of Chicago’s TimeLine Theatre Company, the more impressed I am ... TimeLine takes care to choose interesting plays, then mounts them with a combination of panache and physical dynamism that I find altogether irresistible.”

— Terry Teachout, The Wall Street Journal
