"Back and forth the play goes—sometimes silly, sometimes deadly serious. Wohl is a smart writer, and if 'Grand Horizons' is not exactly grand, it is deceptively insightful, especially at the end. Staged by Leigh Silverman, we get a taste of what it could be if everyone wasn't working so hard to make us laugh."
