Wounded is a harrowing and haunting story of loss and the definition of love. It is a fitting memorial and tribute to those who pay the ultimate sacrifice - and beyond - for country and home, soldier and civilian alike. I saw a preview, but the entire production was so flawless I would have assumed it was closing night. Ultimate praise must go to playwright Kerry Kaz for creating some unforgettable theater. ...

"Wounded" is not an anti-war play. It is a quiet, respectful examination of three intersecting lives. Not just these three, but everyone in their world has suffered the costs of war. Kaz makes it quietly clear -- war knows no boundaries, and no one escapes unharmed....

Amazing writing! Awesome production overall! Dealing with the aftermath of wounded veterans and the wounds they inflict on their loved ones and in turn the wounds their loved ones inflict on them. A tough subject matter that is dealt with masterfully in this play. It doesn’t pull any punches but manages not to beat the audience over the head. A delicate balance done with deft hands!...

This play is powerful and beautifully written. What an unflinching examination of our animal nature as expressed through the lens of three people coping with unendurable trauma and pain. It beautifully exposes the fragility and raw vulnerability of men and women coping with the stress of war and it's aftermath. Truly powerful and devastating. ...

This show is extremely well written and the playwright's words are performed with intense honesty by the excellent cast. 'Wounded' is reminiscent of Sam Shepard's work on how the 'wounded' of our society struggle within themselves and with each other to create a day to day existence....

Wounded is one of the most emotionally complex and devastating plays I have seen in a long time. Strong, raw, gut-wrenching performances of a challenging play makes this a deeply moving experience.
Telling the story of a woman caring for her husband, tragically injured in war, and how she tries to regain some of her own identity back, this becomes a harrowing tale of people struggling to make it though life day by day. Definitely one of my favorite plays I have seen at this year's Fringe....
