"... If one is shocked, stunned and , in the conclusion, edified by this
powerful experiential statement, one is then made aware, through art, of
a very creative exposition of today's Weltanschauung. This work goes far
beyond the possible "campy" interpretation of its title (a wrong
interpretation) into regions of terrifying violence and equally
vivifying hope. From Monteverdi to the work under discussion, the
theatre piece of any consequence aims for the solar plexus, delivering a
haymaker. Martirano not only delivers the haymaker, but presents us with
a deus ex tempore who haymakes the haymaker."
