...characters are too busy striking attitudes to hit honest veins of emotion. His symbols have been known to multiply like fruit flies and almost as mindlessly. His chief danger is the unhealthy narcissism of most modern art. From the caves of Altamira to the Apollo Belvedere, pagan art looked outward and celebrated man. From the cathedral of Chartres to the music of Bach, religious art looked upward and glorified God. Modern art looks inward, contemplating the artist's ego, to the point of myopia and hallucination.

...Playwright Bolt has made a drama that relies on precision of language rather than eloquence, the prism of thought rather than the blade of action. Strangely and wondrously, for a Broadway stage, it is the mind that dances in Seasons; faith is the inner core, but intelligence is the outward proof of the hero's virtue.
