The reviewer for the ''Hollywood Reporter'' wrote: "It's among LaBute's most nakedly personal examinations of stunted males enmeshed in conflicts of intimacy, so much so that it almost self-consciously plays out as his own variation on motifs familiar from one of his most direct influences, Sam Shepard."〔Meisel, Myron.("Despite contrivances in the play, this production of one of Neil LaBute's most emotionally raw works is confident and compelling" ) hollywoodreporter.com, July 29, 2014〕〔(" ''In a Dark Dark House'' Press Release" ) gofootlights.com, June 24, 2014〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「In a Dark Dark House」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
