Publicity & Reviews

“Cadence’s “John” is haunting and haunted, full of ruminations on connection and detachment, life and death, love and loneliness — essentially the human condition.”

— Claire Boswell, Style Weekly (November 1, 2016)
“Matt Bloch and Anne Michelle Forbes showed a well played troubled, almost bipolar couple trying to find love for one another through their own doubts. The universal motifs and unique design contributed to create a wonderful show I recommend.”

— Sophia Anthony, Knights in the Limelight (November 8, 2016)
