Faced with the prospect of leading a normal life, can Sarah confront her addiction to chaos and war?

This play created interesting conflicts for discussion and did not answer them. This allowed reflection and discussions after the play to delve into our own thoughts and ideas.Written on Mar 06 2012

"Time Stands Still" was an outstanding play. It was very believable and thought-provoking. The small ensemble cast gives you a lot to think about with each character and with how each character is relating to the others and to the conundrums presented by life lived intensely or intently. The actors really delivered inside their characters. Steppenwolf Theatre's Upstairs Theatre is a great space. No bad seats. Good acoustics.Written on May 01 2012

This is an exceptional play that is both poignant and challenging, but some of the cast was not well-suited to it. Particularly, the lead actress had difficulty gaining any sympathy from the audience and it made the play's main question very easy for me to answer.Written on Apr 02 2012
What I will say, however, is that the production level is incredibly high, as one would expect, and the design elements were second to none.
Go, but try and get whatever discount you can as full-price tickets are far from with it.
