"At the heart of this powerful, one-character play is James DeVita . . . who delivers a mesmerizing, tour-de-force performance that will never be forgotten by those who witness it. As Andy, DeVita captures the tough shell with which the grieving father protects himself, and the deep, everlasting pain bubbling beneath the surface. DeVita’s performance is so real, so painful, so penetrating that you want to reach out and console him as you would a best friend." -- Showbiz Chicago
