The Works of Acclaimed Writer Kirk Wood Bromley
Quotes

Theater Professionals
"Kirk Bromley is one of the most intrepid, visionary playwrights working in New York today. His work should be produced."
- Greg Kotis, Tony Award-winning author of Broadway's Urinetown

"A year ago I began a quest to find the words to tell my story -- those elusive and impossible words that honestly communicate thoughts and feelings. Kirk Wood [Bromley] found those words for me. [His] words do not live through the actor, the actor lives through them."
- Joshua Berg, New York and London theater producer

"Kirk Wood Bromley is a unique and indispensable voice in the American theater."
- Ben Yalom, San Francisco director

Readers
"I read and loved BRAINWASH and am really looking forward to the production! Thanks, Chad, for heading us in the right direction! I can hardly wait! And, Kirk's "To Do Art is To Defy Death" is nothing short of brilliant! Those words could not have been written by anyone but Bromley. He is an absolute genius -- which I tend to say every time I finish reading or seeing any of his work. He's astonishing!"
- Beverly Willey, Los Angeles

"Thank you for the synopsis and the quoted passages from KWB's Revolution play. I have forwarded them to several people (including a British director who early discovered Bromley) who would also appreciate the play on language, the wit, and intelligence."
- Ruth Kulerman, New York City*

"I am so grateful to you for those wonderful words, and the intelligence and emotions behind them. [I love] your incredible plays."
- Virginie Unanue, San Francisco

"What a great way to begin Independence Day! You certainly selected a couple of powerful scenes to pass along to us readers -- they absolutely do add a touch of richness to the holiday! Makes me glad all over again that I already own a copy of Bromley's Washington: The American Revolution. I guess today would be the perfect day to reread it. Thanks for the inspiration!"
- Beverly Willey, Los Angeles


Actors
"Like Shakespeare, Bromley believes in the possibility of cramming all of humanity into the space of the stage."
- Obie Award-Winning actor Matthew Maher

"Like falling in love for the first time."
- Bill Coelius, professional commerical actor (NFL, Maxwell House, Hershey's, 76 Gas station, Zantac, ETrade, Rutgers University, and more)

"Kirk's words are ambrosia . . . or maybe that's not strong enough . . . some kind of sweet addictive narcotic. Once you begin to speak it, you don't want to stop."
- Ian Hill, Artistic Director of critically acclaimed New York theater company Gemini CollisionWorks

"You get to use all those techniques that we've been taught to use to bring dense, multi-image, complex and rich dramatic poetry to life and you get to do it with works that haven't already been picked apart by ten thousand actors before you. Indeed working on these plays is like living the great American trailblazing dream. What actor can resist this?"
- Hank Wagner, of New York's critically acclaimed De La Guarda


"I wanted to thank Inverse Theater for your website and the monologues you have supplied for we actors. I have just fallen in love with the monologue from Death of Griffin Hunter."
- Debi Guthery, Florida
