A poetic depiction worthy of Allen Ginsberg." --L.A. Times "CRITCS' PICK: His performance really soars . . . he'll be an unstoppable force." --L.A. Weekly "CRITICS' CHOICE: An important piece . . . sadly conveys the human cost of this unnecessary war." --San Francisco Chronicle "The Eyes of Babylon is a brave play that is gripping, poetic and deeply moving." --RTE Ireland "[With] genuine compassion, anger and tears, this revelation naturally packs a vital punch." -- Dublin Metro "Deafeningly simple yet monumentally epic . . . could some day change the world." --Backstage West "A powerful one-man show . . . from humor to tears to outrage in the blink of an eye." --The Advocate "I was blown away by Jeff's artistry. He was meant to influence us all." --Lily Tomlin "He is magnificent in every way. I was so moved!" --Jane Wagner "The Eyes of Babylon is as astonishing to me as any other work of art which appears, fresh, from a highly gifted artist. I was drawn into it, disarmed, and stilled to a state of positive shock and awe. As moved as I was throughout the presentation, I didn't weep until later, when the worth and weight of it had sunk in." --Joan Baez “Jeff Key is the living embodiment of the Great American ideal... compassionate, fair and honorable. He is my American hero.” --RuPaul "Jeff Key's The Eyes of Babylon is a moving, touching, thought-provoking piece of theatre that is important and deeply disturbing. Do not miss it!" --Del Shores "Knowing Jeff personally I was privileged to watch some of the events unfold in 'real life time', but when I saw the stage version of his story and of his struggle, I was moved beyond words..." -- Leslie Jordan "[It's] as if Jack Kerouac went to war." -- Salt Lake City Weekly "It's the actor's blend of humor and pathos that makes his story compelling theater. [An] honest, profane account of his journey of conscience." --Salt Lake Tribune "A different night of theater . . . a well-told story . . . beautifully written." --Deseret Morning News "Key's perspectives are intensely emotional with a sense of noble reflection." --The Kentucky Kernel "It is an artful unburdening of his private struggles. Being himself becomes an exultant act performed on a stage where Key is obviously right at home." -- Birmingham Weekly |
