Reviews
"Throughout his meteoric career, Mr. Jacobs-Jenkins has made a virtue of his anxieties about identity -- social, racial, creative -- in meta-theatrical plays that turn traditional forms inside out."-- "New York Times"
"With Everybody, Jacobs-Jenkins has written a play about love -- or, rather, a play that shows how impossible it is to write about love -- and it fills the heart in a new and unexpected way."-- "New Yorker"
"Provocative and involving... Wildly funny."-- "Huffington Post"
