Douglas Post is one of those rare scribes who is both a serious playwright capable of exploring important themes and an unabashed lover of the thriller genre with a weakness for the ripping yarn. It's a savvy niche. Personal Effects is a play that revels in a good plot twist even as it explores such themes as communal guilt, the limits of revenge and the possibilities of forgiveness.
Chicago Tribune
A terrific play...a beautifully crafted noir thriller...a surprisingly tense plot that deals with powerful themes such as revenge and forgiveness with enchanting use of symbolism and the connection of spiritualism and the eternal urge to return to the land, to one's roots.
Chicago Critic
A taut, suspenseful production that leaves you guessing to the bitter, fantastic end.
Chicago Arts & Entertainment
Filled with edge-of-your-seat suspense and spine-tingling surprises.
Wicker Park Voice
Edgy and interesting...flawless and imaginative...if you are a lover of drama and theater this production is worth the visit.
