SAM SHEPARD'S 'TRUE WEST' NOW ON STAGE AT CONVERGENCE-CONTINUUM IS:

"true to form"   "an intense seriocomic character study"  "Bailey...a
burly and deft comedian"  "Hoffman shines"   "doff a cowboy hat to Simon
and company for a spirited, darkly funny production--and for letting us
hear the voice of Shepard again, loud and clear"  (Andrea Simakis, The
Plain Dealer)
