"Crown City Theatre Company's gritty production of Thomas Babe’s 1978 drama, 'A Prayer for My Daughter,' directed by Albert Alarr, struck me as the kind of shoestring gem that L.A.’s extensive 99-seat theater scene does better than anywhere else. Kevin Brief, Matthew J. Williamson, Matthew Thompson and Gary Lamb – operating in a makeshift police station reminiscent of the old sitcom 'Barney Miller' – bring a feverish intensity to this drama exposing the shoddy, brokenhearted morality of a society that’s having a harder time than ever separating its cops from its criminals. ... Go see 'A Prayer for My Daughter' – and let it pique your curiosity about one of our country’s lesser-known but worthy talents, a playwright whose legacy lives in the gratitude of actors."- Charles McNulty, L.A. Times, February 16, 2010
