"The play takes off thanks to the interplay between Matthew Isler's Ray, Gage Wallace's Richard and Jeff Duhigg's Gordon."
​-THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE
Frederickson guides her fast-paced production with skill and assurance.  The five-member ensemble cast is excellent.  A powerful, disturbing play. It’s taut, gritty, unrelenting and honest."
~ CHICAGO THEATRE REVIEW 
Fierce, meticulous, heartbreaking performances from an unstinting cast. Matthew Isler commands the stage. Jodi Kingsley turns one-note Deborah into a complex character both courageous and pitiful"
​- THE CHICAGO READER
Strong performances...
​A quintessential Irish play, landing squarely between tragic fatalism and the callous spirit of a careless universe"
~ NEW CITY
"You know it's been a strong performance when you find yourself cringing in your seat from the action onstage. I had just such an evening watching Irish Theater of Chicago's IN A LITTLE WORLD OF OUR OWN"
​- BUZZ NEWS
A thriller that unfolds with a feeling of inevitability. A ssociate artistic director Jeri Frederickson, does an outstanding job... All five actors turn in strong performances."
