“Al D’Andrea skillfully guides the climbers over [the] glacial Jungle Jim of a set and brings out the sharp edges of their characters.”

“Al D’Andrea creates a frigid, often fatal environment, and we feel nature’s fury...D’Andrea’s tense staging makes {Hunter’s) fall off a defective ladder one of the production’s high spots.””
Joel Hirschhorn, Variety
“I must tell you how emotionally moved I was by the play...its theme and characters still resonate in my mind. The acting was uniformly superb, as was the direction, lighting, sound effects, and expressionistic set design...I applaud you for choosing such an ambitious play for production, and I look forward eagerly to next season.”
David Gale, audience member, in an unsolicited letter to the producer
