"None of this would be possible without the superlative ensemble acting that is also Chicago's hallmark."

"Hobbyist writers often get a bad rap, but if Rychlewski has more plays like this one, he can look forward to a second career after collecting his pension."
- Mary Shen Barnidge, Windy City Times

RECOMMENDED "There is a touch of Eugene O’Neill’s 'The Iceman Cometh' in 'Chops,' a play in which pipe dreams are the staff of life for at least two of its four characters, all of whom share a passion for the golden days of jazz."

"Randy Steinmeyer, perfection as a middle-aged man who believes he has gotten lucky."

"Rychlewski is a stylish writer, and...director Richard Shavzin’s stellar cast is superb." - Hedy Weiss The Chicago Sun-Times
