Here are a few things that reviewers have said about some of Edwin Sánchez's other plays:

On ICARUS:
"Sánchez's lyrical, often soaring portrait of dreamers is one of the sweetest, most affirming plays … " —Mark de la Viña, San Jose Mercury News

On THE ROAD:
"Sánchez's excellent, compelling drama … the heart-rending text …" —Robert Kent, Next Magazine

On UNMERCIFUL GOOD FORTUNE:
"Since graduating from the Yale School of Drama in 1994, Edwin Sánchez has won more fellowships and foundation grants than most playwrights receive in a lifetime. Go see UNMERCIFUL GOOD FORTUNE and you will understand why. The drama's premise is intriguing, and the action often riveting, but what really sets the play apart is the dialogue." —Virginia Gerst, Pioneer Press
