what the critics are saying

“A felicitous marriage of classic and contemporary”

“Like Christopher Nolan reorienting “The Odyssey” around PTSD and guilt, Owen is using an ancient story — Euripides’ tragedy “Iphigenia in Aulis” — to elucidate modern concerns”

“[Alicia Mason] makes Owen’s poetry as natural as back-alley belligerence”

LILY JANIAK – SF Chronicle

“This is a performance not to miss”

“Compelling performance by Alicia Mason…[channels] just about every emotion known to woman”

JEAN SCHIFFMAN – Local News Matters

“Mason nails the emotional trajectory of her character, using a brilliant working-class Welsh accent for the tough but lyrical script. As Effie, Mason deserves an award for solo performance, and Shotgun’s production is a winner.”

ZACK ROGOW – Theatrius
