Many Worlds is a Smash Hit!
"...all three characters play a vital role in this thought-provoking play. They all question their reality, but in Byrne's hands, there is one truth firmly steeped in reality: Working Man's Clothes has mounted another must-see show. "
Doug Strassler- OffOffOnline.com
"I highly recommend this show. It made me think a little about the things that I'm certain of and the ways that I tailor my personality to the world I'm occupying. I genuinely felt for these characters. What more can you ask for when going to the theatre?"

Doug Strassler- Off Off Online.com
"It's the performances that carry the day...Men Eat Mars Bars...is a well-performed piece with some surprising highlights."

Pulling Teeth by Brandon Koebernick
“Koebernick has indeed found a perfect patron in Working Man’s Clothes, a production company geared toward encouraging new talent and presenting a host of different voices and styles…a wild ride, adroitly navigated by Culverhouse, and its depth is eclipsed only by how enjoyable it is.”
-Doug Strassler, offoffonline.com
“…directed tightly by Jared Culverhouse and features nicely detailed performances by Don Jeanes as Seth, Julian James as Stevie, and especially Natalie Barback as Katie”
-Martin Denton, nytheatre.com
