Mary Jane is Pulitzer Prize finalist Amy Herzog's remarkably powerful and compassionate portrait of a contemporary American woman striving for grace.
REVIEWS:
"Mary Jane is Herzog's most satisfying work to date because it have verisimilitude that many contemporary realistic plays don't."
The New Yorker
"But Mary Jane is nevertheless a very big drama, even if its conflicts are almost never between people. They are instead between Mary Jane and her unspoken ideas about life -- that is, God. To me, this makes Mary Jane the most profound and harrowing of Ms. Herzog's many fine plays."
The New York Times
"For a heart-piercing ride-along on the avalanche of emotion engulfing the parent of a desperately ill, incapacitated child, playwright Amy Herzog exceeds her own fine record of accomplishment with Mary Jane."
The Washington Post
