"Joe Salvatore’s III smoulders with
talent. Salvatore is the real star of the production. He has directed with the
same careful intelligence with which he has written the drama--and proves himself
to be a capable actor as well. Salvatore has brilliantly dramatized the psychology
of these gifted artists living in a gay enclave before the Gay Liberation Movement."

“Yet ‘III’ can be easily applied to
the show’s creator, Joe Salvatore, who proves to be the most gifted triple-threat
I’ve encountered at the Fringe this season. He wrote, directs, and stars
in this magnificent production that feels like, with just a little re-jiggering,
it belongs in a regular run in the Off-Broadway Cherry Lane Theater.”

"Salvatore’s prowess at pure dramatic construction
serves him equally well, especially as he charts the salient moments when Wheeler,
Wescott, and Lynes cohabitated together on East 89th Street. The actors —
Salvatore as Wescott, John Del Vecchio as Wheeler, and Daryl Embry as Lynes
— beautifully calibrate the curving, winding shape of their unlikely romantic
and emotional bonds. Physically, psychically, and otherwise, their chemistry
is extraordinary. They are — like the notable men they play — a
fabulous trio for the ages."

"Salvatore has created three extremely complicated,
complex, and flawed individuals in his piece. Each character resonates; each
portrayal is heartfelt. III is an extremely worthy addition to this
year’s FringeNYC. If you have only a couple of Fringe shows to see, make
sure one of them is III."
