Indeed, on the basis of this play alone, I am willing to make the rash
claim that McDonagh is destined to be one of the theatrical luminaries of
the twenty-first century." -New Republic.

*About none too fragile:*
*none too fragile*, a professional theater operating in Akron's Merriman
Valley, came into existence with the hope to aid in filling a local,
adventurously-bold theatrical voice.  With a mindful concentration on
modern and relevant productions, *ntf* aims to create an invigorated
atmosphere for spirited dialogue between our audiences and some of Ohio's
premiere Performing Artists through thought-provoking, heart-touching, and,
at times, principle-challenging, character-driven storytelling.
