★★★★ Small in scope but absolutely epic in its attention to detail. A beautiful tribute!Time Out Chicago
RECOMMENDED! Anyone who has ever been caught up in the nightmare that tech rehearsals can be, will easily recognize the scene. The description that comes to mind is the one often applied to war, with its “periods of immense boredom followed by moments of extreme terror."Hedy Weiss, Sun Times

Delicious fun for serious theater fans.Third Coast
A triumph! A Unique Experience in Theater. Highly Recommended!EDGE media

Join us backstage for the most unique event of the 2017 theater season. The clock is ticking and the work list keeps growing with each passing moment in this astonishing, hilarious and painfully accurate recreation of a techncial rehearsal.

A well-penned love letter from those who know theater best. It’s difficult to imagine where playwright Anne Washburn can find a better audience for her script. Chicagoans— we know how to love theater, and this is our show.Picture This Post

Sit back and don your own personal headset to join the cast and crew as they wrestle with the desperate pressures of snacks, lighting, exhaustion, art, and sound cues. It's an enviromentally immersive experience that's utterly new and arresting.

A truly inimitable experience! Buzz News
The most innovative work to date from playwright Anne Washburn (Mr Burns: a post-electric play), 10 out of 12 celebrates our collective effort as humans at work to create beauty amid the mundane.

Alternately riotously funny, terrifying and touching. The most technically extravagant piece of design work seen on a Chicago storefront stage EVER.Chicago Critic
