“Jacob Perkins has written a true exquisite, a play as fine as a Fabergé egg (in this case, gilded with frank talk about sex), a precious Off Off Broadway miniature, beautifully presented by the company i am a slow tide. [...] Under the director Gus Heagerty’s careful eye, the performances are miracles of detail, with Stanton’s searching sincerity and Parkinson’s drawling, tamped intensity generating bursts of lightning throughout.” - Helen Shaw, The New Yorker
“a sensitive and moving premiere,” “original, exciting, and above all honest.” - Christopher Byrne, Gay City News
“erotic, intimate, creepy, and touching,” i am a slow tide are “queer voices that actually have something new to offer.”
- Dan Dinero, Theatre Is Easy
“a fine calling card for a gifted writer possessed of an inquiring mind and a knack for dialogue that splits a situation wide open. Add Jacob Perkins to your list of playwrights to watch out for.” - David Barbour, Lighting & Sound America
