“ Caged is a sharply crafted piece. Very apt under these surreal lock down conditions as we all come to terms with our own house arrest.
Dark and surprisingly comic. A perfect monologue to entertain and disturb. Loved it. ”

“ A striking, surprisingly dark piece. It's funny until it isn't any more--and then, it's downright frightening. O'Grady does a marvelous thing in helping us to feel empathy for a living creature that isn't human, but is still alive--and trapped. And then, you start thinking about the cages we lock ourselves in--addiction, bad relationships, etc--and you think about how you can tell yourself "it's not so bad, it's okay, I get by, it's fine." This is a deeply layered, wonderfully written piece from a deeply layered and wonderful playwright. Read O'Grady NOW. ”

“ This play has a furry-tale but don't dismiss it as slight or cute. Makes you think about the domesticated life of our own pets but also those belonging to others, in homes and farms. Are we denying these furry creatures a sense of freedom? What would we be thinking if we were in the cage like them? This and her other notable monologues from the perspective of animals would make for an exciting addition to any festival on animals and animal rights. Check it out. ”
