- LA Weekly, May 3-May 9, 1996 --"Director Daniel Henning obtains some comically grand supporting performances from his ensemble [at the Blank Theatre Company], notably...Brian Carpenter in a brief turn as an oily bureaucrat charged with overseeing Turing's postwar behavior."
- Back Stage West, May 1996 --"The men in Turing's life, both the lovers and the prosecutors, get proficient and highly individual portrayals from actors Brian Carpenter, John Ronald Dennis...and Lenny Wolpe."
- Los Angeles Reader, May 3, 1996 --"In every aspect the cast performs sublimely in this L.A. premiere, sensitively directed by Daniel Henning. Neither Henning nor the actors miss a beat of logic or emotion."
- Los Angeles Times, May 1996 - "A multi-layered theatrical tour de force which challenges the mind and wrenches the heart.
- Daily News, May 1996 - "An emotionally searing production...it is one of the most accomplished shows so far this year."
