“ So funny, so dark, so clever! Mercury is surprising, creative and deliciously evil. It's satisfying in all the right ways. The writing is excellent. The characters are so wonderfully cruel and fantastic. Everyone wants something, everyone is working for some clear goal and the stakes are high and hilarious until that moment when it's completely terrifying! (Great moment of theatre!) It's so much fun to watch people fall into their deepest, darkest places and attempt to crawl their way back out. This is a great play to add to any season! ”

“ Wonderful, bloody, hilarious, scary, magical, breathtaking, heart pounding, fun. Everything I want in a Yockey Play and more. The thing I love most about Steve's plays is how they push the boundaries of what is possible to stage. His work is so good that no matter what his scripts require, you want to move mountains to produce them. Mercury shakes off the possible, and is a fun and exciting romp in the lives of a few average people. My only complaint is that I wanted more. ”

“ Yet another beautiful and fantastical play. Steve has incredible skill to take imaginations to far away places while making the reality of the situations hit you right in the heart. This play reminds me of the power of the theatre and how magical this work really is. This play is gripping and honors pure theatricality. ”

“ MERCURY was a grand slam for Salt Lake Acting Company in every way. It stretched us artistically and was a huge hit with our audiences. It was a joy to work on as director, and Steve is the ultimate collaborator. This play generated some of the best audience feedback we've ever received; they were thrilled and delighted and horrified in all the best ways. MERCURY is a bloody treat! ”
