MORAINE is "Reader Recommended" by the Chicago Reader.
"If you're wondering, a moraine is a heap of earth and stones carried and deposited by a glacier. But there's ample deeper meaning within Ryan Patrick Dolan’s new play, which follows four friends dealing with a fifth friend’s cancer treatment. As comics like Julia Sweeney and Tig Notaro have shown, the devastating disease can still be funny, and Dolan’s got the smarts to avoid wallowing in sadness. In turn, director Mary Rose O'Connor has the smarts to involve a brilliant cast, several of whom are improvisers trained in the ancient art of actually listening and responding onstage. As Mark, a bro trying to keep things as they've always been, Caleb Fullen pushes hard to find depth and humor in a character who could be all too unlikable. The result is the opposite of glacial." - Chloe Riley, The Chicago Reader

"The cast through and through are charming and funny. Reitsma has a warm generosity that contrasts nicely with Fullen’s sourpuss, stressed-out monotone and Sims’ entrepreneurial slickness. Slack, meanwhile, nails the part of “spaced-out improviser” and Kunkler brings a nail file toughness to Kelly. Their chemistry under director Mary Rose O’Connor carries the show." - Newcity
