§  "...only a director as adept at both light and dark themes as the Hypocrites' Sean Graney has a hope of pulling it off...", "The result is a production as mind blasting as Ionesco's script." - Jack Helbig, Chicago Reader

§ "The Hypocrites’ production features a malleable, outstanding cast", "...Graney really enables us to connect with Ionesco’s piercingly timeless words." - Lucia Mauro, Chicago Theater
