"Palmieri's characters are quite full, and the details of gritty
Long Island life come vividly alive through exacting detail
and a naturalistic tone. The scenes involving Richard are
especially riveting, written with sharp, cutting dialogue that
keeps you on edge." - Backstage (full review)
"Interesting, mine-filled terrain." - Time Out NY (full review)
"A gripping, powerful play. Beautifully crafted,
psychologically intriguing, and never predictable. Palmieri
draws full characters with distinct personalities. The
conventional and the unexpected mix regularly with very
fresh results. " - NY Theatre.com (full review)
"Call him the Iago of Long Island. Palmieri's disquieting
new play LEVITTOWN features one of the most
compelling modern villains to grace the New York stage
this year...an exhilarating theatrical experience."
