While his comedies leave a somber aftertaste, his forays into satire with a serious edge are gut-bustingly funny. . . . In The Hunchback Variations Maher mocks academic examinations of the creative process even as he engages in a complicated deconstruction of creativity.” —Chicago Reader“An Apology . . . quite simply put, is one of the most incomparable undertakings that has graced the stage. . . . (A) complete masterpiece.” — Chicago Stage Review“A dazzling algebra of memory, identity, and the fluid but fixing cruelty of time.” “Highly Recommended/Critic’s Choice” – Chicago Reader
