"PERFORMERS SHINE AT FESTIVAL ANTIGONISH"
"The performers all shine in the swift-moving comedy... Thomason, with his stalwart, gentle, funny Tom, could be everyones favourite dad, and with Thompson, gets some of the evenings biggest laughs."
"Its a heartwarming and funny show... perfect light-hearted summertime entertainment. "

"A TEASING TANGLE...MASTERFUL ACTING"
"Sleuth is an intellectual, teasing tangle...with its clever writing and plot twists, as well as, in this production, masterful acting."
"This cat-and-mouse game with both characters struggling for the upper hand had me and my seat-mate jumping twice at surprise gunshots."

THE MATING GAME: "SPLENDID...HILARIOUS"
"Sometimes in a relationship, everything comes together in just the right way, creating magic. Thats the case with the Festival Antigonish season opening production of The Mating Game."
"Its a well-written romantic comedy by actor-playwright Robin Hawdon in the popular British bedroom farce style. And in the hands of a quintet of
talented Nova Scotia actors, its hilarious."
