Bethy Poluikis and Elizabeth Hayhurst give wonderful performances as two estranged sisters brought together by a family tragedy. Written & directed by Olivia Peterson, the script is sharp, comic and insightful - and her direction is strong as she really brings out the humanity in her kooky characters. Fantastic evening of theatre - loved it.... full review

I told my friends, "this show will make you feel a lot of feelings." Olivia's writing is spectacular, and the actors made the dialogue fun enough to relieve us from the chilling and intense story. Julian Silver's talent stood out especially, giving the language a deep humanity and a ton of humor. Bethy was radiant and styled to the T, and I only wish there could be more Bethy! More Bethy! Bethy forever!... full review

I enjoyed this show. I think it has a lot of potential and I'm glad to know it's getting developed further beyond the festival. On the plus side, the show was carried on the backs of strong performances. On the minus side, the transitions hurt the momentum of the show itself. However, I think this was an excellent effort all around, and I'm excited to see what this team brings to the festival next year!... full review
