GINGERBREAD HOUSE
by Mark Schultz
Red Tape Theatre
"Palmer has chosen some whimsical elements to create this fairytale-like feel. Branches hang from the ceiling. Kaleidoscope imagery on the backdrops continue to transform. A forest morphs into a child’s silhouette. It’s powerful! The Gingerbread House lingers long after the last disconcerting morsel."
- Katy Walsh, Chicago Theater Beat
"Red Tape brought out the best from their ensemble. Nicholas Combs, Alex Kyger, Paige Sawin, and Mike Tepeli all gave remarkable performances. The script requires a strong female lead, and Meghan Reardon’s performance was captivating. She brought a strong presence of vulnerability to a young, once carefree character. Reardon held our hands firmly until the very end."
