What they said about Peer Gynt: 
"Peer Gynt...is a marvelous piece of work...proving that small can indeed be mighty and that ingenious imagination can easily outstrip big budgets. Director Kathy Scambiatterra, who has done a brilliant job of bringing this difficult work to life, is supported every step of the way by her finely tuned ensemble... It features a stellar, oxygen-depleting star turn by John Mossman in the title role... And her design team has managed to carve out a thrilling stage environment...a wildly energetic and vivid presence from start to finish."  
- Chicago Sun-Times

"Scambiatterra's gorgeous, glowing sequence of expressionist tableaux, a tone-poem echo of Ibsen's dreamy verse fugue, is one of this production's marvels; another the sheer polish of its large, ensemble...."  - Chicago Reader 

"Kathy Scambiatterra fully realizes this epic journey thanks to her big imagination that pleases both the intellect and the senses. Her collaborators include a hard-working, devil-may-care ensemble, led by the acrobatic John Mossman in the title role, and an inventive design team that gives this rousing prodution great visual appeal..."  - Gay Chicago

"…swift and often engaging…Scambiatterra has delivered an energetically compact storefront edition of Ibsen's insane masterpiece." - The Chicago Tribune
