    “ Every culture has tales of the beginnings of time - of how the natural wold came to be. Rice has given us a vision of the end of times - with a view from the wonders we share our world with. It’s a tough and realistic assessment. Framed with gorgeous visuals, love of the natural world, and an all-knowing cast of characters, Rice dishes up hope side-by-side with a caveat - it’s almost too late but not too late. Appropriate for families, and ripe for discussions. When will it be too late? ”

    “ This play would be great for a troupe like Bread & Puppets, or Arm Of The Sea - it's nature-based and the elements of the theme are anthropomorphized in ways that remind me of B&P's "The Apocalypse Defiance Circus". ”

    “ Thrilled to be able to recommend this climate change fable that was developed at the WriteNow Workshop where I had the privilege to see the wolf, rabbit and crow come to life. I love the crow's costume. Rice is a very visual thinker and her images - whether written in the beautiful monologues or mentioned in stage directions - are fantastic! ”

    “ No one anthropomorphizes better than Robin Rice, and very few can match her for poetic urgency. Both enchanting and devastating, “A Wolf, A Rabbit, and A Crow...” is a fable for our times, and a damn good one at that. A beautifully harsh, ultimately hopeful work of art. ”

    “ The most devastating threat to our survival is neglecting the environment. We deliberately refuse to educate ourselves for fear it'll impede our short sighted goals. And the result will be a barren wasteland with nothing to eat. How do we get people to listen and especially those who are our future? We turn to the maestro playwright Robin Rice. If anyone can save our planet with a pen, she can. This play is so alive and engaging, a fairy tale to save our planet and a brilliant one at that! Bravo! ”
