"Every once in a while, a play completely renews my faith in humanity. Tony Meneses’ THE HOMBRES is such a play. THE HOMBRES gives us an inside look at a type of relationship we don’t often see on stage —intimate male friendship. It’s heavy stuff, but it’s also very funny. Meneses masterfully wields comedy to keep you off guard so you don’t see the emotional punches coming."

- BroadwayWorld Portland

"THE HOMBRES thoughtfully addresses the bonds that people create, but also touches upon other issues that include struggles with identity, the plight of Latino workers in the U.S., and setting personal goals. This is a modern play that will both entertain and provoke important conversations."

- BroadwayWorld New Jersey

"It is serious and funny and heartbreaking and beautiful, and above all, it is fully masculine and alive. It is a play not just for the serious play-goer but for all playgoers."
