“ Adolescence and sexuality are already pretty damn terrifying. Caitlin Turnage knows this and knows that we know it, making it all the more brutal as she shows how contemporary religion makes things exponentially worse, both in the dangerous external power relations it imposes and the way it warps its two protagonists' own sense of self. Sharply observed and powerful. (And "Pantyhose Rice Babies" is my new band name.) ”

“ Every once in a great while, a playwright happens upon a perfect metaphor for the human condition - here, it's three caged factory chickens, trying to fill the time as they await the inevitable and inventing much of human (or chicken) civilization in the process. You can try describing it - Samuel Beckett meets The Far Side, perhaps? - but there's no way to do justice to the scope of its vision or the humanity of its characters. Who are chickens. In any event, this needs to be produced now, widely, and often. ”

“ We are awash in stories in this culture, told to us since childhood, with the capacity to cause incredible harm if we don't stop and examine them; it's easy for "enlightened" theatre folk to think that their stories are somehow exempt from the issues of religious stories (and vice versa). Joanna Castle Miller knows better, and her own story, by turns hilarious and heartbreaking, is an unsparing look at the myths we tell ourselves, how they can curdle into delusion, and how to bring honesty back into our lives. Vivid and visceral. ”

“ A lyrical and melancholy meditation on one of the great paradoxes; that the very things that make us human - our intellect, our rationality, our ambitions - are the things that screw up our ability to make human connections. Vividly theatrical - each of the three roles is an actor's dream, in either human or animal form. ”
