what the critics have said about Russell Davis:
“I first encountered
the work of playwright Russell Davis…at the world premier of his FURTHER
ADVENTURES OF SALLY…. I found myself hanging on every word and admiring Davis’
singular communicatory skills more with each passing moment.
…amusing us more than a little en route with a verbal wizardry that warms and
delights. Davis at the same time painlessly imparts a deeper universal meaning
having to do with personal signposts lost and regained….”
Nels Nelson, Daily News
“There's so much good writing in Russell
Davis' APPOINTMENT WITH A HIGH WIRE LADY...
During it's penultimate moment, APPOINTMENT WITH A HIGH WIRE LADY achieves a
level of descriptive prose rarely seen on a stage...all of Davis' ideas merge
into an ornate tapestry and the delicacy of his weaving becomes, for the first
time, apparent.”
Bob Harrington, New York Post
“...it must be said that Davis is an
expert at exposition. The way we gradually learn who Cynthia and Christopher
are—and their relationship to each other—is as good as playwrighting gets.”
Peter Filichia, The Star-Ledger
