A House With No Walls - EDGEBoston - By Jennifer Bubriski
""Fiercely intelligent" is a phrase that can be overused, could be considered cliché. It’s also the perfect phrase to describe A House with No Walls, the thoughtful yet entertaining play now at the New Repertory Theatre."

tick, tick…BOOM! Blows The Lid Off - Broadwayworld.com - by Nancy Grossman
"If the best theatre is both provocative and entertaining, then Downstage @ New Rep can proudly proclaim 'Mission Accomplished.'"

"The trio putting the piece across at New Rep, under Stephen Nachamie’s choreographically precise direction, are appealing — as is the sound of their unamped voices, particularly that of Brian R. Robinson."

"TICK, TICK..BOOM! is a must-see for RENT groupies and a fun-see for the rest of us, especially for Sondheim devotees who will find homage after clever homage to his idol in Larson’s mini-musical. TICK was originally a vehicle for Larson and a band but after the success of RENT, it was reworked into the three character version which electrifies the tiny black box theater at New Rep. Director/choreographer Stephen Nachamie’s production makes you keenly aware of Larson’s potential---and musical theater’s loss."

"Anyone who has seen "Rent" - and if you haven't, wake up your laptop and visit ticketmaster.com immediately - knows that Larson's music is fun, poignant and eerily relevant to a variety of people."

"By the time Jon receives a special, unexpected present at his birthday party, it’s easy to want to cheer. Although how compelling you find Jon’s troubles may depend on which side of 30 you’re on, there’s no question that the energy and talent of the cast are a special find."
Explosive Emotions - In Newsweekly - by Zachary Violette
"For those of us who have seen "Rent" just one too many times, New Rep's black-box production of "tick, tick ¦ BOOM!" is a gift, giving us another glimpse into the genius that is Larson."

This 'Streetcar' is true to Williams - and to itself - Boston Globe - By Louise Kennedy
