“Josue Laboucane is fantastically uptight and nerdy… Nevada Yates Robart plays the enthusiastic encyclopedia saleswoman, Mrs. Darimont, with such a balance poise and neuroses that we’re not surprised to discover more than we bargained for in her… a nod must be given to director Julie McIsaac as she provides a strong cohesiveness and momentum to the piece as a whole.”
