“Sarah Ruhl’s new play is extremely imaginative and hypnotically beautiful…in a gorgeous production helmed by Rebecca Taichman.”
– Variety
“Ruhl, best known for “The Clean House” and “In the Next Room (or The Vibrator Play),” often merges realism and poetics — and this is no exception. “Oldest Boy” is subtitled “a play in three ceremonies” and her go-to director Rebecca Taichman guides a striking production filled with ritual, puppetry and traditional Tibetan dance.”
– New York Daily News
“Tactfully staged by Rebecca Taichman, The Oldest Boy is full of pretty pageantry.”
– Time Out New York
“The Oldest Boy… is delicate and affecting. And it’s impossible to imagine it receiving more ideal treatment than Rebecca Taichman’s exquisite production…Taichman has a long association with Ruhl, and her direction here is perfectly attuned to the playwright’s peculiar sensibility.”
