“The women are most memorable- Gilmore's despicable Mother Courage and Joncas's skittish Kattrin, who communicates through a series of fearsome croaks."

John R. Ziegler and Leah Richards, Thinking Theater NYC

"... a great turn by Joncas - you can see the sparkle in her eyes as Simple embraces a new path."

Joey Simms, American Theatre Magazine

"... Joncas is soft and soulful as Esmeralda."

John R. Ziegler and Leah Richards, Thinking Theater NYC

As the representatives of the new generation, Simon and Joncas impressively incarnate Kostya's and Nina's respective descents into disillusionment. Significantly before those descents end up in rather contrasting places, an excellently staged moment when Kostya walks up and drops a murdered sea gull right between the feet of Trigorin and Nina as they are about to kiss acts as a memorable symbol of the intimacy and unpredictability that characterize this rousing, multidimensional production.
