."It pours forth like white-hot lava from the seething depths of Tennessee Williams’ volcanic talent, as if dashed off in one sitting. It is lush with tropical undergrowth, misty with miasmic vapors. It flirts with Grand Guignol horror. A strain of madness runs through it. Not a bad choice for Halloween.
     When staged as it is here, it is also clearly seen to be, theatrically speaking, a gem. Nick DeGruccio, who distinguished himself with his light touch, the right touch, in his direction of the Colony’s award-winning musical spoof, City of Angels, now proves he can give a Tennessee Williams classic the power and passion it demands." - BackStage West
