“Anna Gion’s performance as Susan is truly what brings the play to life. Her face and body language radiated fear and awareness as she navigated the situation, and the audience felt all of her critical realizations. The staging of the show, paired with her genius performance, brought the audience into Susan’s head.”
- Lily Byrne, Cortland Standard
“When you have a production this effective, all you think about is Susan, the woman at the center of the story, here played by the winning Anna Gion. … Gion brings the character vividly to life. We’re with her as Susan reacts to the squeak of a shoe, the buzz of the icebox, and the smell of smoke in an ashtray. She draws a breath and we exhale with her.”
