“‘The Ice-Breaker’ features two strong, yet nuanced, characters who deserve our undivided attention. On stage, Magrath seems like a real human being. She is propelled by Sonia’s endless hot air, which is sometimes a bluster, other times a breeze.”
“This powerful, involving theatre piece is now being performed at the Laguna Playhouse, where an opening night audience rose in unison at its conclusion for an extended ovation. The company members each play as many as 14 different characters as they re-create the reaction of Laramie townspeople…regarding the crime. The fluid ease with which the actors slip out of one character and into another is highly impressive. …Magrath as the nervous lead writer on the project, as well as the one who found Shepard’s near lifeless form, completes the company.”
“Clearly a group of artists at the top of their respective games, telling a story they clearly need to tell. By any definition, this is very, very good theatre.”
