Review Quotes: "Miller's recent productions form a unique body of work in their own right. They are distinctive and utterly memorable in their radical differences from each other and their willingness to take extreme risks and assume ethical responsibility for their singular experiments. His seemingly insatiable creative rage remains one of the irreplaceable performances in the worlds of letters and culture."--Henry Sussman, SUNY, Buffalo
