“DESERVES ITS ACCLAIM…an imaginative and visually stunning performance …Go see this play”
~ Mooney on Theatre (Full Review Here)
“Staging an adaptation of a Southern Gothic novel is a challenge. Riding an invisible wagon, a challenge. Performing an underwater scene in slow motion, another challenge. Theatre Smith-Gilmour CONQUERED ALL THREE.”

“Theatre Smith-Gilmour…conjure[s] an epic out of thin air…This is a RARE OPPORTUNITY to enjoy a massively intimate spectacle in an intimate space. NOT TO BE MISSED.”

Well, while the critics may have liked it, proving how much smarter they are than the rest of us, I was among the many who left at intermission. Interesting perhaps, but long, tedious and anything but entertaining.
Would’ve loved to seen and give my honest critic of it.
