CBC

Powerful, surprising and yes, moving.

The Globe and Mail

Anyone who has lost someone they loved should expect to be deeply moved by this imaginative encounter with the Grim Reaper …You will laugh, you will cry, you will stand in awe that two mimes in masks can evoke such powerful feelings.

Edmonton Sun

It’s all wonderful, original, beautiful fun to watch unfold onstage.
