“A fervent and attention-getting play…ultra-relevant…acute, absorbing,
topically vital theater."
- Talkin Broadway

"Thoroughly enjoyable both as pure theatre, and as a springboard for
debates about freedom and secrecy."
- Broadway World

“A bold, ferociously argued two-character drama... Muckrakers couldn't be
more current or relevant.”
- Albany Times Union

"Muckrakers is not only ‘ripped from the headlines,’ you can actually hear
the newspaper pages being torn as the play progresses."
- Springfield/Hartford Arts Examiner

“Ripped directly from the headlines and brimming with sex and scandal…
an evening full of rich debate and scintillating seduction… offers the grim
satisfaction of a classical tragedy and the ringing irony of an inspired twist.”
- Edge Media

A young female activist brings an older man—a famous
political hacker/journalist—home to her Brooklyn
apartment to spend the night. But as they start to expose
each other’s secrets, personal and political desires
collide, testing the limits of privacy in the modern world.
