"The real surprise here is A.R.T./MXAT Institute alum Eliot, whose take on Mike is totally arresting. He's a young man incandescent with belief in his own misguided convictions. Eliot makes the character as magnetic as his beliefs are repulsive."

Jenna Scherer, Boston Herald
"Mike's transformation is born of necessity. That makes it no less dramatic, as it is also born of tremendous internal struggle which Eliot displays masterfully. As dangerous and explosive as the role requires him to be, he is also able to make his character vulnerable and evoke sympathy for him. Eliot finds the lonely, fearful boy who lives under the façade of the loyal foot soldier spitefully ranting about the spawn of Satan."

Nancy Grossman, Broadway World
The power of this bracingly intelligent play derives less from its explosive moments than from the interior struggles that register on the faces of two exceptional performers - Benjamin Evett and Tim Eliot - when they are not saying a word or breaking a thing...
"As Mike, Eliot communicates the skinhead's loathsome qualities but also the human stakes as one hate-poisoned youth tries to grope his way toward a new understanding of the world."

Don Aucoin, Boston Globe
"Eliot manages to break your heart once he's shed the rock-hard swagger of a good soldier in a very bad army."

Carolyn Clay, Boston Phoenix
"Tim Eliot as Mike delivers a smart performance that layers inquisitiveness, brute rage, and anguish. Mike is tormented by his guilt, but also sincerely convinced that people like himself are an endangered species; the world around him does little to dispel that notion."

Kilian Melloy, EDGE Boston
