"Pitch perfect... polished and full of the right kind of energy, which is to say it has sass, playfulness and satiric edge." - Chad Jones, Theatre Dogs
"From start to finish, [director
Susannah] Martin consistently finds the 21st-century immediacy
of Shaw's brutal observations on power, sex and money. Every
elegant turn of phrase leads us back to the stinging accusation
at the play's center." - Karen D’Souza, San Jose Mercury News
"Breathtakingly daring!
Shocking indeed! Under director Susannah Martin's confident
hand, Shotgun Players gives this simmering subversion a
sturdy, well-acted production, on a stage set of ingeniously
revolving rooms by Steve Decker." - Robert Hall, Piedmont
Post
"By turns imperious, brash,
and playful" - Sam Hurwitt, East
Bay Express
"I was not prepared for relevant, pointed and brutally
honest, timeless political & social commentary. But
that is what I got." - Si, tribe.net

The Shotgun Players are staging George Bernard's scandalous 1890s play about a woman who makes a fortune as a proprietor of high-class brothels. Nothing timely about that subject, is there? - Contra Costa Times
