By Janis La Couvee

“It’s fast, funny and completely entrancing to watch actors at the top of their game, veterans of vaudeville and improv, as they hurl themselves willing into situations demanding complete trust in the abilities of their fellow performers. Whatever you thought you knew about improv – throw it out the window, erase it from your memory, and grab your tickets quick before other theatre patrons realize just what a treasure we now have in the city.”

Sin City Season Two: Carnies: Opening Night
By KC – October 26, 2011
“Karen Brelsford as Purdy Durvert was also excellent. She is the rejected younger sister of an acrobatic family, turned hack-hypnotist with a put-on geisha voice. Purdy’s slow wit is her charm; you just want to hug her and tell her everything’s going to be ok.”
