Press

“The ten shows from 2018 our critics won’t soon forget.” “Written by Beth Hyland and directed by Rebecca Willingham, this show from The Sound was one of the most charming, most intellectually self-aware things I saw all year.” – Chicago Reader

Under Willingham’s direction, the storytelling remains crystal clear, even as characters talk over each other. Her focused approach to the narrative makes this character-driven comedy sing, allowing for comprehension without sacrificing the pace of the piece. Additionally, Willingham manages to creatively utilize a variety of areas in The Frontier often left unembraced, smartly activating all the real estate the tiny storefront has to offer.” – Picture This Post

“Willingham gets supremely unguarded performances out of her top-notch young cast…Red Bowl is humble Chicago theater at its finest.” – Chicago Reader

“In Rebecca Willingham [Hyland] has a director and collaborator who intuitively understands the needs of her work and insures that the production’s heart and brain stay in constant conversation…[The Sound] are on an inspired roll.” – NewCity Stage
