"Susan Miller's 20th Century Blues, which is receiving its Phoenix premiere in an engaging and well-cast production at Stage Left Productions, shows the close bonds that women who have known each other for 40 years can have and how being over 60 presents a myriad of challenges, especially if you're a woman....Miller presents interesting, three-dimensional characters who are unique and who each represent a different aspect of the impact of being around 60 years old today and having experienced most of the major events of the 20th century...Director Cody Dull has cast the show with a quartet of actresses who do a beautiful job portraying this tight group of friends. Debra Lyman is wonderful as the headstrong Danny....While not every element in 20th Century Blues works, the important idea of how we've all experienced tragic world and personal events over our lives, while our bodies have also changed from child to adult, and how that all shows on our faces, is interesting and intriguing. It may also make you think of events in your past that have impacted you and how looking at a series of photos of you over the years will show how you've been affected by those events." -Gil Benbrook, Talkin' Broadway (click here to read the complete review)
