Review #2 is out! Job Sobel from Blogcritics has a lot of good things to say, and choosing my favorite quote here is tricky, but this shout-out to our amazing design team seems worth singling out:
Baleful lighting (by Kia Rogers) and season-shifting crashes of unearthly thunder (sound design by Elizabeth Rhodes) are all that's needed to evoke the dreary landscape; the actors' cart, which also serves as their rough stage, constitutes the entire set (by Jason Paradine), and it's spectacular.You should read the whole thing - his description of Liz's language (and celebration of force of nature Becky Byers) are well worth the clicking.
So, read the full review here, then get your tix (still some $14 tix with the code "FUGHAT" for the 9th and 10th), and then leave your own thoughts on the play here.
Wang tang that wallow!
Also, there was this line:
"As a friend put it to me, Dog Act "reminded me of why I'm in theatre." "
That is a really positive review.
