Imaginative and entertaining - Adam Richter's funny tale of avoiding death is a winner. The setting in a suburban mall is perfect and Colleen's spunkiness making use of her demons is an inspired choice. I would love to see the puppets on stage. I'm hoping a long life for Colleen and that she eventually finishes her novel - writing or reading. Well done!

05.26.25 - A great comic take on inner and outer demons and what those REALLY entitle. Adam Richter can put a comedic spin on just about anything, and he does so here to great effect. I loved the 4 inner demons (With the Unfinished Novel being a particularly innovative one). Would also kill to see the theatre put together the Headless, Irish demon at the forefront of this piece. C'mon somebody, do this!

Laugh out loud funny send up of Death (the summoner), doubt (who has brought friends), and pseudo-suburbia! The banter is beautifully strategic, Colleen is just the right kind of plucky, and the demons, outer and inner, are wonderfully colorful creations! (One demon in particular is especially unforgettable!) A delectable confection, perfect for Halloween but good year round!
