~ Kirsty MacSween, Three Weeks - Edinburgh ★★★★★
"Masterpiece...The audience spontaneously laughed, gasped and burst into tears in equal measure."
~ Ben Blythe, Broadway Baby ★★★★★
"A hugely inventive and compelling piece, which both entertains and shows the true horrors of war."
~ Thom Dibdin, The Stage

~ Bill Parslow, Total Theatre (Brighton, UK)

~ Alex Brown, Three Weeks - Brighton ★★★★★ (Brighton, UK)

~ Fleur Poad, Fringe Report (Brighton, UK)

Jukai
"Thoughtful and moving...The physicality of each character in every scene has clearly been given a huge amount of consideration...the soundscapes capture the changes in mood and scene perfectly...excellent performances and understated moments of pathos."
~ Amy Yorston, British Theatre Guide (London, UK)
“An exquisite storytelling piece…simply enchanting...Combining the evocative language of music, the use of masks, dance and contemporary theatre, this young company creates an intense and vibrant show, able to captivate audiences of all ages and nationalities."

"An action-packed journey...a remarkable production...an excellent example of true international cooperation."

Barbe Bleue
"Touching, sensitive, and morbidly funny."
~ Sascha Cooper, Fringe Review ★★★★ (Brighton, UK)
"Adeptly formed piece of physical theatre...The use of puppets is ingenious; the extraordinary cloth characters take on an eerie life of their own and I felt myself recoil under Bluebeard's malignant glassy gaze."
~ Sophie Tanner, Three Weeks ★★★ (Brighton, UK)

The Meaning of Wife
"Hilarious performances...Conant’s impersonations and Judge’s comedic timing complement each other well in this honest exploration of modern marriage, proving anew that variety is the spouse of life."
~
Caroline Voagen Nelson, Time Out ★★★★ (NY, USA)
"Erin Judge and Ailin Conant mix variety-show comedy with compassionate, forward-thinking insight as they fight for the postmodern bride’s place in society."
~ Amanda Halkiotis, Theatre Talk (NY, USA)
"This show treats the absurdities of marriage and relationships equally. Let us hope that the New York State Senate will do the same...very timely...These two performers are very engaging and unafraid of inviting the audience into their lives. "
~ Nicole Higgins, nytheatre.com (NY, USA)
"Catch fringe shows like The Meaning of Wife!"
~ Mindy Kaling, TV Actress/Comedian (USA)
Borderline
"Un regard burlesque et satirique sur cet échantillon de la fonction publique [l'ANAEM]...un spectacle qui ne souffre d’aucun temps mort : ça bondit en tous sens, ça s’engueule, ça change d’univers en un claquement de projo...Un lâchage de lest très agréable en ces temps de grisaille. (A burlesque and satirical look at the French Migration Agency...a piece that doesn't suffer from a single dead moment; it leaps in every direction, fighting, changing the universe with a single lighting cue...a very pleasant breath of fresh air in these gloomy times.)"
~ Manon Ona, Le Clou dans la Planche (Toulouse, France)
