"...A snowman wearing a dead child's yarmulke. A Honda Civic's hazard lights, blinking in the snow. Pineapple Danish served in a tattoo parlor. Such vivid images lend a ring-true distinctiveness to "Moses," a rewardingly unpredictable one-person play about grief and faith."

"...The biblical Moses, as it is written, encountered God in a flaming bush that was not consumed. No such miracle awaits the Moses in the eponymous solo play now premiering at Theater J who is faced with a fire that did consume: it burned to the ground his home and reduced to ashes his wife and their five children who were inside. Moses was not there to protect them. He was elsewhere. He had turned off his phone. And the crushing guilt he now feels from that dereliction of familial duty propels him through what becomes a wending and deeply moving drama of one man's encounter with conscience ... and maybe God."
