"FEVER is well worth the time of a theatre-goer in search of some intellectual stimulation."
"Thoroughly compelling."
"FEVER is fascinating and important..."
"Dave
McCracken's new play Fever is an ambitious and thought-provoking
philosophical drama; its deep probing of the essential nature
of humankind
surprised me and made a significant impression. The
arguments are heady and fascinating and inspiring. It
is greatly to
McCracken's credit that he takes us through such a difficult
and fundamentally unsolvable problem with as much insight, clarity, and
elegance
as he does. The ending
McCracken gives his play feels a little subversive, but it's also timely and resonant.
The deep
inwardly-directed
thinking that Fever pushes its protagonist through is potent and
necessary stuff; the ideas contained in this surprising play
make it well
worth the time of a theatre-goer in search of some intellectual stimulation. "

"Fever has some compelling notions on cosmic good and evil."
Marc Miller, Back Stage review - 5/22/2008
"...a
hothouse eroticism dominates Macbeth in the Other Room, Dave McCracken’s
adaptation
of Shakespeare’s play at the Dionysus Theater. The
tiny theater becomes a claustrophobic mirror
of Macbeth’s mind, as if his
dark thoughts and troubled conscience had furnished the room.”
