Published Reviews

"The play weaves the human condition into each zany and sometimes tragic moment as gracefully as an Amazonian Jammer weaves amongst the gang of Blockers, scoring point after point as the audience's hearts break and elate."

Catalyst Arts

"Undoubtedly punk... a relevant, razor-sharp script."
