"Amazing and ambitious... breathtakingly beautiful...Why can't all of us approach our bodies and ourselves without being so confined by traditional gender roles?"
Mike Fischer, JOURNAL SENTINEL |
"Whimsical, disturbing, gorgeous, grotesque, graceful, obscure, funny, but always breathtakingly daring... Milwaukee will probably never see anything again like Giraffe on Fire."
Jeff Grygny, THEATRE EXAMINER |
"Americlown is kind of mind-blowing. A satire on American culture in clown form. It's funny. It's beautiful. It's ugly. It's dichotomous. And it's easily one of the most sensational nights at the theatre in Milwaukee so far this season."
Russ Bickerstaff, SHEPHERD EXPRESS |
"Kamikaze Cutesauce: Cosplay Club evoked the intimate feeling of an off-off-Broadway production, a triumph for this Milwaukee based company. "
Natalie Sacks, CHARGED.FM |

"One of the most artful shows I've seen in some time. I laughed more watching Nutcracker vs. Mouseking than I have at anything in months." Matthew Reddin, URBAN MILWAUKEE |
"Rich colors, entrancing choreography and artful exhibitionism, an unforgettably outré theatrical experience" Mcallister Writt, SHEPHERD EXPRESS |
"This is the sort of thing one could expect to see in London, or Barcelona, but not Milwaukee...a complex, thoughtful, funny, and beautiful show."
Jeff Grygny, THEATRE EXAMINER |
"Love & Cthulhu is the most ambitious and inventive production Milwaukee has seen in recent years, quite possibly ever...A cauldron that leaves the audience stirred, challenged, and awestruck" LOCAL TROLLEY

"This eclectic group of talent has a synergy that makes this New Yorker wonder if maybe a slower paced city allows for this type of Avante-Garde dynamism to fuse and meld into a weirdly fantastic show."
Jane Sato, THEASY.COM |
"The physical comedy -- punishing on this troupe and involving prodigious trust and coordination among its members -- is both unlike and better then anything I've seen on a Milwaukee stage this year."
Mike Fischer, JOURNAL SENTINEL |
"A haunting cavalcade of images...a surreal discourse on the digital entertainments we create to combat and contain our cultural experience.." Selena Milewski, SHEPHERD EXPRESS |
"This production creates a magical world that erases traditional “Magic Flute” expectations and leaves its audience wondering what’s coming next and from which direction." Elaine Schmidt, JOURNAL SENTINEL |
“So much artistry and magic---an enthralling and intellectual alternative.” WISCONSIN DAILY INDEPENDANT |
"...a young, educated group, clearly empowered with both textual analysis and visual splash, and their leader is Brian Rott." PETESOPHIZING.COM |

"An exhilarating evening of vivid pageantry, colorful characterizations, humor, drama, and big ideas. For a dark satire of human folly in microcosm, it’s amazing how much joy is here."
Jeff Grygny, THEATRE EXAMINER |
"Quasimondo's work — all original, devised pieces forged through the crucible of the rehearsal process — often reveals as much or more about our collective hopes, dreams and fears involving race, class and gender as the scores of more conventionally presented plays covering these themes that I see each year." Mike Fischer, JOURNAL SENTINEL
