"The material was so tightly and nicely constructed and just let us look into a very private space. Both actors kicked a**; vulnerable and broken and in need of something they can't name. And I dig the space, I mean eight lights, two chairs, a table. Go." -- David Simpatico
"We were blown away. I was so proud of tangent and of you guys and of Tivoli and of me. Felt like a real special moment. Loved the play no end. Kudos ad infinitum." -- Rob Schott
"Wow. The Good Father is a sharp, smartly written play, acted with genuine affection and insight. Thank you for bringing it to the Hudson Valley and reminding me of what is possible only in a theater." -- Stephen Mucher
"Tangent Theatre is the real deal. The acting, directing and choice of play were spot on. You'll laugh, cry and experience everything in between. Don't let the fact that it's just down the road in Tivoli make you think that this is not professional theatre - because it is. Give yourself a treat and see this play. We just walked in off the street and were transported." -- Walter Carbone
"The Good Father was a powerful and riveting drama. I laughed and cried, caught up in all the emotions. The actors were superb." -- Ann Vermehren
