What the second part of the show illuminates with disturbing clarity is how sharply attitudes toward the killing have changed in Laramie, how a revised history has gradually replaced the facts of the case, once undisputed.— Chartles Isherwood, The New York Times
“A gorgeous and moving production…a mesmerizing, seamlessly integrated blending of stories…. There is no worthier project onstage this season in Cleveland… Goldstar, Ohio is Our Town, Ohio and it has been revealed to us in all its pain and its little joys at Cleveland Public Theatre.’—Tony Brown, Cleveland Plain Dealer

The piece [Uncommon Sense](directed, beautifully, by Paris), presents specific moments in the lives of four people on the autism spectrum and their loved ones, giving a neurotypical audience the chance to feel not so much the struggles and successes of the characters (though both abound) as their interior lives and ordinary experiences. With precision, compassion, and humor, Paris-Carter and Paris have created a play that, lets the viewers experience the (related but far from identical) worlds and consciousnesses of this panorama of characters on the autistic spectrum from a perspective that perhaps even their parents, their siblings, their would-be lovers, and their caregivers can’t access.— Lauren Novice, Exeunt Magazine
