Recommendations of The Replacement

  • Dianne Nora: The Replacement

    This clever, touching play tackles serious issues with warmth and gentle humor. Norkin’s quick dialogue and cut-to-the-chase pacing will surely thrill audiences, and give his collaborators a great deal of material to mine despite the play’s brief length. I hope this reaches the audiences that so need to hear it!

    This play is one to cherish! Such a difficult subject and handled so skillfully. Poignant, and funny at the same time. People will leave the theatre wanting to discuss this one.

  • Bram Hartman: The Replacement

    Incredible piece! Balancing striking humor and a serious topic. I love the quick upending of Clifford when given even the slightest of pushback. It feels real in that hateful people can't deal with confrontation. I smiled multiple times while reading this and others will too!

  • Paul Smith: The Replacement

    Morey Norkin's writing never fails to make you think, ponder and appreciate. Taking a deeply serious subject matter and combining humour with blunt speech and a powerful message is no mean feat and here it succeeds in the most unique fashion. A play which works on so many levels and as a whole has enormous impact. Such clever, clever writing.

  • Scott Sickles: The Replacement

    Hilarious and adorable response to a harrowing circumstance. Norkin pulls no punches as he relentlessly tickles our funny bones indicting fascism while extolling the virtues of knowledge. A sharp satire with fun roles for actors in a wide range of ages.

  • Arianna Rose: The Replacement

    A fantastic play that uses humor to make a very important point about hatred, ignorance, and scapegoating. I loved every line. Bobby bubby baby will lead the way! This play should be performed in all the festivals. Always.

  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: The Replacement

    Here is a brilliantly conceived idea that is worked with great finesse and humor! Norkin takes on the Holocaust deniers and white supremacists in a funny, punny, and satirical story that would be a hit at any festival! Wonderful work!

  • Bruce Karp: The Replacement

    I found this play to be moving and timely. Norkin's depiction of the bubbie was spot on, funny when it needed to be, and serious when she is making a point about hate. A very successful walk on the tightrope between the two sentiments. This is a play that should be seen!

  • Eric Pfeffinger: The Replacement

    Edgy and regrettably timely, this play dismantles hateful rhetoric by pushing it to the absurd extremes of its logical conclusions. A politically engaged and necessary work.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: The Replacement

    I adore this play! It starts off so scary, but Sylvia is so witty and strong. And young Cliffy, so earnest and wanting to learn, even though he gets it wrong sometimes. Such a wild and fun way to send home a message on a dark and terrible subject. I wouldn't have thought such a thing could be done. That Morey Norkin is a miracle writer, I tell ya! This is a play that needs to be produced often!
