Ulysses on Bottles Reviews
Washington Post- Recommended
"...The play's subject - the corrosiveness of the ongoing occupation on Palestinians and on the Israeli mind - registers as urgent even as the script's hyperinflated style scratches distractingly. It's hard to see how the production could be better, though: The pace is taut, and each performance is etched with laser clarity. The silver lining is that you leave thinking less about the quirkily drawn play than about the reality it evokes."
DC Theater Arts- Highly Recommended
"...Ulysses is imprisoned but his poetic passion flies sky high. He is a hero of the heart, an artist of resistance, a victor in vision even in defeat. Quite remarkably, inexplicably actually, Ulysses on Bottles floats us into a headspace where only illogical allegory can make sense of the senseless. It's a stunning theatrical voyage and not to be missed."
MD Theatre Guide- Highly Recommended
"...Sarah Marshall's portrayal of Seinfeld, a mysterious character representative of the Israeli surveillance state, was absolutely chilling. Chris Genebach, who played Horesh, Isakov's colleague, demonstrated the ability to finagle the law to serve one's own agenda while stripping others of deserved justice. Finally, Eden showcased how the majority of us live, pretending all is well in the world when our children can laugh at a singing man dressed in a doll dress, all the while ignoring those whose children live in constant terror and fear. The performances were stunning, while the lines of "Ulysses on Bottles" were so elegantly translated into English that I kept jotting them down."
BroadwayWorld- Somewhat Recommended
"...The actors very clearly put their souls in the play. Everyone had power in their voice and body. I couldn't even say one actor stood out beyond the rest, they are all so talented. They all even brought an eerie edge to their characters where you couldn't quite figure out their intentions."
