"artful and spirited"
--The Washington Post
"earnest, beautifully acted staging"
"in-the-round staging gives the piece a more immersive and panoramic feeling than a more traditional stage-plot would offer..."
"The talent packed into Mad Forest is, at times, astonishing."
"... director Michael Dove's beautifully human and fearlessly directed piece may compel enough to be seen a second time."
"Directed with restrained solemnity by Michael Dove..."
"Mad Forest's strong performances and intelligent direction provide a powerful, unsparing, and vivid portrait of life under totalitarianism that resonates beyond the Romanian experience."
