New York Times Critic’s Choice:
“stark, raucous staging...what stays with you from the final sequence is the slow, frieze-like procession that leads the blinded Eddy offstage: an image of love and community, as well as sadness.”
Classical Voice North America:
“...And the angular, stylized body movements designed by choreographer Jenny Ogilvie also contributed greatly to the humor and mood...they even got to do a grimly funny musical-hall number, complete with jazz hands and follow spots, as they sang about the plague.”
