Reviews

"It's a pleasure to witness ... it delights and stimulates and broadens the imagination. Any production that can bring us such wild fantasies with so much grace is abundantly worth seeing." -- Creative Loafing

"Directed by Kari Goetz, this ensemble piece was thought provoking and visually surreal ... Goetz, along with Katrina Stevenson's flowing choreography and costume design, presented these Dalí-esque metaphors to great effect ... [a] fascinating play" -- Tampa Tribune

Education

There will be a 10-minute talk back after each show with the performers.
