“Sex work is “business, not personal,” she and Johnstone say in the play, but it’s clear in Lutfy’s thoughtful staging that the soul-destroying occupation they share was the only work available to poor teen girls in the brutal patriarchal society…fascinating, funny, and fierce.”

-Pam Kragen, Union Tribune

“Rob Lutfy‘s directing keeps the action shifting smoothly from humor to emotional boil to occasional physical attack.”

-Stage and Cinema

“Rob Lutfy’s direction is spot on when delivering these complex multi-layered stories that transport the audience to different worlds, creating a true theatrical experience.”

-Alejandra Enciso-Dardashti, From another Zero
