Stage Review: 'Bridge's' vagueness, pace make critic want to jump
Post Gazette: "The poet Ric Masten once wrote, whether as fact or myth, that all those committing suicide on the Golden Gate Bridge have jumped not out toward the ocean but back toward the city. The implication is that suicide is a cry for attention and a leap back toward the very life that it denies. Maybe that's what drives Ken, Tobias, Phera and Gretchen in Matt Smith's new play, 'Bridge Club,' being given its premiere by Pittsburgh Playwrights Theatre. The four keep gathering on the bridge that is apparently the site of their past or future suicides."
