From the Paper:

"Steven Deitz's "Inventing Van Gogh" performed at the City Theater in Pittsburgh was a play offering insight into the nature of art making it enjoyable on an intellectual level but lacking entertainment value. The play did have a message and managed to convey this message effectively, but needed to also make the events of the play interesting to watch to involve the reader in the story."
