“The descriptive prose is beautiful and engaging,and Lawler manages to make violent images seem almost poetic and, at times,sexually charged. Anne Rice would be proud.”
“Full of wide-eyed intensity and graphic descriptions of violence, Dwayne Lawler's short play Tokyo Vampire is a surprisingly emotional monologue about love, loss and dreams.”

“…the production succeeds by delivering the voyeuristic horror thrills that most fans of the macabre eagerly expect from a vampire's tale. The performance achieves this through old-fashioned storytelling and without the presence of the vampire's victims—or any blood, for that matter. That is a feat that a lesser performer could not hope to replicate.”
-Jill Jichetti, Offoffonline.com
“Lawler, an Australian actor who also wrote the play, uses his voice to excellent effect as his tale jumps from incident to incident and mood to mood. Swept up in vicious, killing ecstasy one moment, he sinks into remorse and disgust the next.”
-The Daily Yomiuri
