Hartland is both a mess of nerves and suprisingly matter-of-fact as John…, Dennis Schebetta…is just right…, James Masciovecchio…brings a suprising gift of acceptance and calm, and Karen Baum has an electric one scene role…, these professionals are well cast and tell a powerful story.” (Christopher Rawson, Post-Gazette) ,” The marvel is due in large part to the wonderful acting of F.J. Hartland and Dennis Schebetta, which must mean marvelous direction by John Shepard…”(Arlene Weiner, Coal Hill Blog - Performing Arts Reviews) “…well acted, provocative…an extraordinary, virtuosic performance by F.J.
