DANNY BOZARTH certified reviewer June 17, 2013
Run and see Greg Abbott before it's too late! My favorite character is Darlene. In fact I'd like to see an entire show that revolves around her. Greg is so talented, and he becomes the characters he has created. I really love this show, and I plan to see it again next weekend.... full review

Fve stars to Greg Abbott ...not just for great writing and acting (6 characters- no small feat) but capturing what slowly happened in America one factory at a time! It touches deeply, as we've relatives or people we know that fall into these beautiful characters... It's a "must go see" The Viola Mountain Door Company! ... full review

Viola Mountain Door Company is one of HFF13's hidden gems. Greg Abbot effortlessly weaves a story involving multiple characters. My fear with these type of shows is that storytellers are not often able to make the audience truly embrace each different character. Abbot takes on different physical characters as well as speech mannerisms, making it very easy to believe he is those characters and not just someone acting like those characters. A very sweet one hour production that is beautifully written and expertly performed!... full review

Alternating between captivating and hilarious (and often both simultaneously), Greg uses characters in a specific situation to touch on human frailty and strength in a way that resonates with all of us. The joy of the show is in its simplicity - one man playing several characters with seamless flow between them and a thematically driven narrative that winds through each of their lives. I can't wait to see how this show continues to evolve, because it's off to a damn good start.... full review

Fantastic Show! Greg did a great job of presenting five distinctly different characters, and how they view life and the changes they are forced to face. The writing was exceptional and representitive of the challenges that many of us currently face in this economy. I would highly recommend this show.... full review
