Here are five enthusiastically received plays set in New York by Charles Mee: Coney Island Avenue, The Mail Order Bride, Queens Boulevard, Utopia Parkway, and Our Times: On the Street Where I Live.
"Charles Mee is an affable rebel . . . His colleagues praise this playwright for everything from his collaborative spirit to his knack for dinnertime conversation. . . . But as an artist, Mr. Mee is far less interested in making people comfortable. . . . along with new characters, most scenes also conjure a new mode of storytelling. . . . In other words, Queens Boulevard may not tell a simple story in a cohesive voice, but neither does our culture. . . . Many theaters have played by Mr. Mee's rules, making him one of the country's most prominent experimental dramatists."
- Mark Blankenship, The New York Times
"You would have to be blind not to be impressed by the dazzling and almost dizzying evocation of a compacted shopping arcade on Queens Boulevard. . . . The neon signs are ablaze over a cluster of stores that include a barber shop, a nail salon, music store, travel agency, vegetable and flower market."
