"So this is one of those plays where you start with a smile and that smile escalates into a grin, then a giggle and then by the end you are most definitely laughing out loud. The act of taking a drug test takes an interesting turn, and then another one, and then another one. All the while the audience has no idea what is going to be revealed next, but in the best possible way. Its a wonderfully funny piece at its heart that keeps on giving!" (Rachel Feeny-Williams, New Play Exchange, 2023)
"An exceptional actor was cast as Gibbons in URINE TROUBLE NOW... He had the entire cast and crew in tears from laughter... Thank you for writing such a fun script to dig into!!" (Pavlina Morris, Changing Scene Theatre, 2015)
"It's rare that I bust a gut laughing when reading a play. Read it [and you'll] laugh out loud - produce it and your audience will laugh out loud. These characters are not exaggerations - I've worked in call centers, plenty of 'questionable' people." (Asher Wyndham, New Play Exchange, 2015)
"I think it’s hysterical." (Kurt Kleinmann, Pegasus Theatre, 2015)
"Daniel Guyton’s URINE TROUBLE NOW was very funny, and had one of the best lines, which I can only paraphrase: I’ve always wanted to be a telemarketer. You probably had to be there, but trust me, it was a riot." (Babs Lindsay, Changing Scene Theatre Northwest, 2015)
"I have been tasked with directing a 10-minute play for our ten-minute play festival and this script in particular caught my eye. The writing is hilarious and I love the comedic timing!" (Aniya Mosley, Texas A&M, 2024)
