 This is what I have  edited the Picardi article to. 

John C. Picardi is the author of the plays The Sweepers, and Seven Rabbits on a Pole.  His plays are published by Samuel French and have been produced off-Broadway at Urban Stages in Manhattan and across the United States. Sweepers received positive reviews in the Los Angeles Times. The LA Times (The Sweepers)  Lawrence Van Gelder of the New York Times favorably reviewed both plays.  Van Gelder said about Sweepers that ""Mr. Picardi's writing renders his characters timeless"". His review of  Seven Rabbits on a Pole opened with ""An epic is in the making"".
