"David Herskovits, working collaboratively with a very strong cast of five, has created a universal meditation on loss...What is given is a poetic tissue of image and allusion that communicates emotion more clearly than plot, like shards of painted pottery that do not necessarily combine to make a single picture." - New York Times

"Visionary." - New York Sun

"Full of grace and intelligence." - TheaterMania

"Excitingly relevant theatre." - Flavorpill

"In bringing classical tragedy down to earth without losing its forceful poetry, this idiosyncratic version gives our current polis a surprisingly faithful—and satisfying—dose of healing tragic vision." - TimeOut New York

Can we really save this world as it slips into war and confusion? Euripides frames burning personal suffering in an urgent civic context: his suppliants struggle to respond to their deep loss as human beings and as citizens; his leaders cloak their plans in the loftiest political rhetoric; his patriotism is passionate and deeply skeptical. With AS YET THOU ART YOUNG AND RASH Target Margin recasts his story in a vivid contemporary mold.
