"Also impressive is Bodine's own work as playwright, I, Carpenter, the final and most powerful piece of the evening. The play details the struggle between a construction foreman and his fired employee. It's a modest but gripping piece, and treats the lives of working-class Americans with a truthfulness that is all too lacking in contemporary theatre. The play is also acted with startling honesty by Bodine, just as comfortable playing a blue collar New Yorker as a Russian aristocrat, and Michael Selkirk, brilliant as the wayward employee."
