ARTS WRITING / REVIEWS / CITATIONS

Nominated for "Outstanding Comedy" from The 1997 Austin Critics' Table Awards

"Too much laughing makes my jaw ache" – Sean Moynihan, The Texas Triangle

"A play is what you make it. What the Mechanicals make is a revel, an exhuberant celebration of play - the verb - in which the artists join with the audience to make believe, to dream, to invent new worlds, new place to be. With plays such as that 30 is hardly enough. Let's have 60! 100! More!!" – Robert Faires, The Austin Chronicle
