“These characters make a thoroughly engaging impression, performances are top-flight, and Leigh Allen’s lighting design and John Perrin Flynn’s direction are wonderful.” LA Weekly – GO & Pick of the Week
“Flynn’s staging throbs with an exquisite vulnerability… the emotion behind their theatrical expression is made crystal clear in this haunting production.” LA Times – Critic’s Choice
“Director John Perrin Flynn has cast the play beautifully; all four performances are terrific. Lyrical, eloquent language in the prose arias… rich local color.” Backstage
“It is a flawless work of art. A mix of hyper-realistic and symbolic… characters that dazzle. I have rarely seen anything in Los Angeles with such depth of both spirit and technique.” Examiner.com
“The passion, pain and hostility in the sisters’ shared relationships are expertly conveyed in the layered performances of Pelikan, Kramer and Zajko, whose interplay is frequently riveting. Design efforts are equally sublime, imparting the perfect balance between kitchen-sink realism and a stylization befitting the play’s flights of fancy. Though this highly unconventional play won’t be everyone’s cup of Irish tea, Rogue Machine provides a superbly nuanced production of a highly challenging work.” FrontiersLA.com
“Astonishing work is being done on the Rogue Machine stage… you won’t find four better, richer performances in town.” Stage Scene LA
“The language and metaphors recall the poetic language of Samuel Beckett.” ArtsBeatLA
“This is a very good play… excellent performances. I was transfixed. Rogue Machine has done well by Enda Walsh… The language is specific and well observed.” Stage and Cinema
“If you enjoy great theatre, The New Electric Ballroom by Enda Walsh is a not-to-be-missed, must-see play.” HollywoodToday.com
