“ With plays like Seeds, The Couple Next Door, and Safe, [Donna Hoke] examines the anxieties of modern living with palpable apprehension about the future, and in that regard, would seem to be the quintessential Buffalo playwright—but with far more foreboding than A. R. Gurney and far less innocent merriment than Tom Dudzick.”
