"In the schizophrenic, wonderful The Inexplicable Redemption of Agent G, the comet at long last returns, drawing Nguyen into profound metatheatrical self-examination. He can't stay serious for long -- insights alternate with dance battles and the Vampire Cowboys' usual barrage of inside jokes. This confusion of gravities keeps the play fascinatingly off balance. In its very wonkiness, we feel a playwright tearing himself apart to find his own first principles. Agent G completes Nguyen's Gook Trilogy, an attempt (beginning with Trial by Water) as telling his cousin Hung's story. The result is funny and weird and eye-opening" -- Helen Shaw, Time Out New York.
