“I believe our job as actors and directors is to acknowledge
the pink elephant in the room. We are supposed to push the
envelope and confront the uncomfortable, openly and directly,
with no apologies.” - Jennifer Owen

“I like the show because it’s honest and I believe it will make
people think. Hopefully it will cause them to speak with one
another as well.” - Jeff Carpenter

“This show is an appropriate continuation of the conversation
about race in Cincinnati. The best part is that the theme of race
isn’t warmed over. Its role in this show may make a lot of us
uncomfortable - not because we’re offended - but because
this is how we really feel.” - Michael Monks

“This is How It Goes is romantic comedy turned on its ear.
In LaBute’s hands, the comedy is slippery and unexpected
as we find ourselves in a sort of funhouse. The plot is full
of surprising twists and disturbing turns. It’s a tale of
manipulation, exploitation, race and infidelity.” - Alana Ghent, Director
