• “A pleasure of Mia Chung’s 'Catch as Catch Can' is the way it lays bare the theatricality of family life. Ms. Chung’s play is, in its tender way, a horror story: a dark parable about what happens if we try to swap roles or refuse to play along or reveal ourselves to our nearest without makeup or stage lights.”

  — The New York Times

• “★★★★★ Smoothly virtuosic — gently well-observed and rich in sidelong detail. Catch as Catch Can is what Off Broadway theater can be at its best. Don’t miss it.”
