Winner of the 2011 Barrymore Award. "An absorbing tale. GHOST-WRITER works marvelously well - a finely wrought piece of entertainment that does just what it sets out to do." - Wall Street Journal. "Tantalizing, understated and lovely. This engrossing, old-fashioned play is about the drama of writing - and typing - and creativity and love. People who care about semi-colons (and you know who you are), this show is for you [An] extraordinary marriage between fiction and theater." - Philadelphia Inquirer. "It's many plays in one - a love story of the utmost restraint, an unbiased portrayal of a lover's triangle, a portrait of a seamless working partnership and a meditation on the act of creation. All that rolls out in about ninety minutes without a misplaced word or a surplus syllable." - Palm Beach Daily News. "The scenes that most crackle with English-language love are the working moments between Myra and Franklin, and not only because their sexual tension is as thick as cement. Between the rat-a-tat-tat clatter of the typewriter and Franklin's oral dictations and debates over syntax and punctuation there lies a deep understanding of the workings of an author's mind - the cerebral nuts and bolts that coalesce into what we call writing, ghostly or otherwise." - Broward-Palm Beach New Times.
