Reviews for 72 Miles To Go...

"""Humanizes a predicament more often reduced to Washington debates."" - Time Out New York ""Hilary Bettis puts five human faces on a national disgrace that most New York theatergoers only read about or see in news snippets on MSNBC... Bettis' big moments remain devastating to watch."" - The Wrap ""The story of a family that wants more than anything to blend in to live regular American lives. The play's poignancy lies in how mercilessly di cult that is and how precarious for all of them."" - The New York Times ÿ�ÿ�""This play is about being American with or without the documentation to prove it... Its power is in its simplicity."" - The New York Times ""The work follows quite effectively one Tucson Arizona family from 2008 to 2016 as they ght the currently worsening United States immigrant policies and their e ect on families involved."" - New York Stage Review"
