“★★★…examines the very nature of forgiveness and mercy“
“★★★★★ In a Chicago theater season that has produced a generous share of first-rate work, there’s been little that might top the brilliance and torment generated by Christina Gorman and Lawrence Grimm in Kate Fodor’s ‘Hannah and Martin’ at Shattered Globe Theatre.”
“★★★★★ Highly Recommended! If you are a history buff, in particular World War II, I suggest you put this one on your must see list.“
“★★★★…takes the audience through an ideological and moralistic journey with deep, thought-provoking, dialogue.”
“a time capsule that explodes into the present…Kate Fodor’s masterful first play brims over with all sorts of truths, painful and profound”
“Highly Recommended…plainly lays out the conflicts of personalities and ethics involved and gratifies the audience“
“★★★…superb, mesmerizing, and masterful“
“a superb cast…directed with stealth-like precision by Louis Contey…exemplifies the struggle and painful realities of the inner-war years, the rise of the Hitler Youth movement, its impact on future generations, and the complex nature of relationships caught in the middle.”
“Grimm’s Heidegger is commanding and memorable”
“stellar cast…a stage picture in constant motion”
“A thought-provoking blend of philosophy, politics, and personal ethics…Lawrence Grimm gives a standout performance.“
