"Chicago playwright Brett Neveu understands the importance of silence - The Last Barbecue contains some of the most beautiful, pregnant, well-orchestrated silences this side of Harold Pinter. And like Pinter's pauses, Neveu's contain a universe of unexpressed feeling, of half-hidden resentments and regrets" ~ Jack Helbig, Chicago Reader
"Nobody can accuse Brett Neveu's likable dark comedy The Last Barbecue of being talky
Most of the time its five characters speak in short, seemingly innocuous sentences ... They seem largely ill at ease with one another. And it's amazing how much they convey" ~ Anita Gates, The New York Times
"Make no mistake. This is an author worth watching, and listening to" ~ Michael Phillips, The Chicago Tribune
