“MacGregor is known for a few things in his plays, and he does not disappoint here: impeccable research, and turning that research into tight, witty storytelling; and writing dialogue that is as good as it gets in today’s theatre. THE ANTICHRIST COMETH is funny, thought-provoking, clever, and timely. Who can ask for anything more?”
—Encore Michigan
