"Thank God for the Actors' Gang.  More than any other company [it] can be counted on to deliver the kind of audacious work that takes risks as it entertains."

Ah, those Gang members.  If anyone understands the ritualized uses of theater, they do.  What emerges from their think tank... is consistently raw and fresh, in all senses of the word."   
- Los Angeles Times
