"Dave Barton, and a large, capable company sparked by some excellent performances that indicate not only an understanding of Barker's work, but a real affectionfor it. The most necessary, and effortless, spark is provided by Jay Fraley, whose sense of humor and detail gives Lucifer a definite charm, and of course the Devil is charming, as we all know. Fraley's light touch is exactly what the play needs, and his few darker moments are true to Barker's writing."
