Critics’ Reviews (3)

A collection of our favorite reviews from professional news sources.

"This show is squarely for those who have always salivated over Foreman’s work and not for those uncomfortable with having no clue what’s going on."

AM NY

Matt Windman

Entertainment Weekly

"'Prostitutes' is impeccably turned out, using Foreman's signature stark colors (reds and blacks are always favored) and inventive lighting and sound design to fill in a disconnected story about a man...who orbits a coy coquette."

Entertainment Weekly

Jason Clark

The New York Times

"This gleeful mind- and memory-bender finds its creator in an unusually nostalgic frame of mind."
