What the Critics are Saying

"Mr. Berkman's Beauty on the Vine provocatively imagines emulative cosmetic surgery taking hold among young women across the country."
The New York Times

"Epic Theatre prides itself on launching high-minded dramas that address weighty social issues. By that scorecard, Epic founder Zak Berkman doesn't let the side down."
Variety

"Zak Berkman's Beauty on the Vine is a play of big ideas, perhaps more so than any other I've seen this season. Epic Theatre Center's production burns with necessity and keeps the audience in thrall throughout. This is vital, ambitious theatre."

"Olivia Wilde Shines!"
L Magazine

"The sensational Olivia Wilde is utterly transfixing"
Theatermania.com

"Zak Berkman's "Beauty on the Vine" is not only one of the most interesting American plays to come along this season, it is at least three of the most interesting plays."

"Beauty on the Vine is a provocative show not to be missed"
EdgeNewYork.Com

"Highly engaging"
TalkinBroadway.com

"An absolutely thrilling and wildly complex play. It sheds the antiquated idea that beauty is only a frivolous issue important to women and, instead, linked concepts of beauty to biggies like power, politics, love, and death. Oh, and it was written by a guy (swoon): Zak Berkman. In addition to writing this incredible play, he helped get Nilaja Sun's No Child... on the stage. If you live in the New York area, you really should devote a night to it."
