…Pesch is particularly gripping…clearly illustrates the anger, disillusionment, and heartbreak of life on the home front post-Vietnam.

…Jenkins was played by Annie Pesch, who's quickly become one of my favorite actresses in the country…I've seen her for the last few years do splendidly with adolescent parts; now she's playing adults, and doing equally worthy work.

Pesch’s ability to vibrantly tap into her inner child with exuberant precociousness and playful spunk certainly aids in setting the correct tone in the opening minutes. Annie...notably ages gracefully throughout. She finds multiple opportunities to convey meaningful depth whether interpreting Mary’s uncertainties as a spouse or quietly absorbing a life well lived in her golden years.

…Pesch, playing a young street tough…showed an astonishing talent to convey the steel spine and keen intellect the character had. Had the play been on Broadway this year, I would have voted for this kid as Best Featured Actress in a Play – and I loved Viola Davis.
