Jessie Richardson Award Nominations:
Vern Thiessen, Outstanding Original Script

"Trio of Monologues Frightfully Good"
- Jo Ledingham, The Courier

"Scott Bellis is fantastic. He transforms so subtly and so completely from patriarch to offspring and back again that it's like watching a kind of spiritual possession. ...The tenderness that emerges is moving partly because it emerges from such prickly masculinity."
- Colin Thomas, The Georgia Straight

"Satisfying from start to finish, Fear Some is a top-notch trio of one-act plays."
- Peter Birnie, The Vancouver Sun

"Directed by Johnna Wright, Back to Berlin reminds us that our stories are not only about wars won and lost but also of love and forgiveness."
- Jo Ledingham, The Courier
