Oren Safdie's GRATITUDE is an unflinchingly dark (and darkly funny) exploration of sexual power-play... [He] is clearly not a playwright to gingerly approach controversial issues... The provocations in the play are very much in line with those of Neil LaBute at his most caustic... You might have some strong post-show words for Safdie. What you won't be able to say is that he doesn't know how to put together a bracingly provocative and ferociously entertaining 75 minutes of theatre."Jim Burke, Montreal Gazette "The 75-minute play begins rather innocently, but dissolves into so much sexual tension and human desperation with a great deal of simplicity and humour. The acting is riveting, and brings out issues that teens handle amongst themselves within the sanctity of a private school with a great deal of force and authenticity." Stuart Nulman, Montreal Times "GRATITUDE offers a topical look at high school lust and longing.... The scenes are well-paced, engaging, funny." Rhiannon Collett , The Globe and Mail "Montreal-born playwright Oren Safdie has hit the proverbial ball out of the court with his new play GRATITUDE. Safdie's play captures youthful stirrings with all their passions and insecurities to devastating effect. GRATITUDE is a brave, provocative story exploring the realities around sex, love, consent, duty, gender roles and rebellion." Mike Cohen, The Suburban
