Press for the Canadian Production:
"Trout Stanley stands out
from the crowd. Dey, whose language has always been striking and
whose dramaturgy has sharpened with every play she's written,
here delivers a masterwork."
- The National Post
"In Trout Stanley, Claudia Dey finessing quirky characters
into high theatrical art. Her kaleidoscopic writing jumps from
the poetic to the bizarre, from the lyrical to the absurd in a
few words. Four Stars!"
- NOW
"Claudia Dey is a fascinating writer."
- Toronto Star
"Dey's script is intensely lyrical and packed with excellent
jokes. Four stars!"
- Eye Weekly
"Describing Trout Stanley in strict plot lines will do it
no justice. This is a work that encourages other human faculties
than the logical: the sensual, the imaginative and the intuitive.
Dey's writing is ephemeral, exquisite and vigorously feminine
and flows beautifully from the mouths of her delicious characters."
- Globe and Mail
"Definitely worth a visit!"
- CBC Radio
"Dey has written the whole thing in a word-drunk style that
takes the rhythms of the far north and bends them to her will.
An appealing offbeat three-hander, Trout Stanley could provide
an exciting showcase for a virtuoso director and three fearless
actors. This trout has legs."
- Variety
"Brilliant!"
- The Live Music Report
