“Christmas Trilogy Great Holiday Escape”  Vancouver Sun

“Under Johnna Wright’s direction, [Lois Anderson] is perfect as Angelica, a diamond-in-the-rough kind of girl who gets picked up by a ‘university boy’.”  Vancouver Courier

“Killjoy is the best of the three solo scripts on display in this evening of one-acts… Lois Anderson is phenomenal as Angelica. …It’s exhilarating to see an actor perform with such freedom.”  Georgia Straight

“Some of our best writers, directors and actors at the top of their game.” Vancouver Sun

“As fresh as newly-cut Christmas trees… A Christmas Three looks good and even smells good thanks to set and lighting designer Del Surjik.”  The Courier

“A Christmas Three is… about the bruising effect the season can have on already-troubled souls.”  Vancouver Sun

“O Christmas Three, how lovely are thy branches of reality.  A trio of tight monologues, rigorously rehearsed and vigorously performed, makes for a great escape from Christmas rigours…”  Vancouver Sun

“This season marks the second coming of David Mackay as a playwright.”  Georgia Straight
