"Silverman is an observant, lyrical and kind writer, generous to all and without any notes of condescension in [their] writing. For all the deviance, [The Roommate]'s ambitions remain rooted to the study of its characters." –Chicago Tribune
"Silverman isn't interested in the dull details of conventional storytelling...Delicious [and] surreal. ...A play that gives two noningénues strange [and] meaty roles." –
New York Times "In its wryly unassuming way, "The Roommate" is laced with insights into how a lifetime's accumulation of frustrations and disappointments can erupt into the kind of rebellion that only seems out of character to those who aren't paying attention." –
Boston Globe
