Summary: A great new writer
Comment: Wouldn't you have liked to go to the theatre to see the crucible without knowing that it was a classic. Watching three days of rain was the first time I went to the theatre unaware of anything about the play and then realising that I was watching one of the greatest plays ever written unfurl around me. The play is at times witty or sad or profound, but it is always real and Greenberg shows the links between the past and the future and the impossibility of knowing or understanding the forces that drove your parents. We get a picture of the parents and it is shaken apart in the second half. Three days of rain is a truely great piece of theatre.

Rating: 2
Summary: Rich kids have Angst too
Comment: This is a very well written play. The problems were not dramatic enough though. I mean, breaking up a famous Father's estate, finding out Mr. Soap Star/family friend slept with your sister, having to choose between two talented architects, are not big problems that a drama like this demands.

Yet the family history is mesmerizing.

Rating: 5
Summary: Wonderful, Stunning, Beautiful
Comment: Greenberg's characters are as honest as a writer can possibly make them. You always know what they mean to say when they get cut off or change their minds, what they have left unsaid, where exactly their thoughts are coming from. He does a masterful job as a playwright and gives honor to the genre, not to mention that he makes the actor's job unbearably easy. Three Days Of Rain is a profoundly touching play that makes you reexamine any assumptions, and recognize the immense power of any single moment.
