✭✭✭✭ "The script confirms Albert... as a playwright with a sharp instinct for tension... keeping the audience in a state of pervasive, quietly unsettling anxiety... Each moment of release is swiftly undercut by a new turn, making it impossible to predict where the play is heading."
-- Stage Door
"Exhilarating to watch"
-- Intermission Magazine
"The thrill and intrigue, on their own terms, are impressive, but Albert isn’t content with sensation; his dire, relatable scenarios invite you to scrutinize your own worldview. And so I’m thrilled to see this tight, wild little beast of a play again!"
-- Istvan Dugalin
"Michael Ross Albert’s writing is impeccable... The piece is a work of true artistry."
-- A View From The Box
✭✭✭✭ "I'll jump at any opportunity to see a Michael Ross Albert play"
-- Glenn Sumi
"Taut, unsettling, and eerily familiar, Anywhere reminds us how tricky and elusive the truth can be, and how quickly civility can fracture when self-interest and control are at stake."
