  • NEW YORK TIMES REVIEW OF Distracted

    To Medicate, or Not to Medicate? That Is One Question

    Ben Brantley

    March 5, 2009: "I must confess that “Distracted,” Lisa Loomer’s new play about attention deficit disorder, didn’t really grip my attention. And no, I honestly don’t think it’s because I’m suffering from the malady du jour that is explored so self-consciously in this overextended, sometimes amusing comedy. Well, not any more than most Americans in the Twittering, consciousness-splintering 21st century."
