WHAT REVIEWS ARE SAYING ABOUT:
THE MECHANIX
Lily Janiak of the
"Olympiad-level energy and craft."
San Francisco Chronicle
"You might find your defenses cracking open and your inner child emerging in a way much more self-serious theater rarely achieves."
"So to grok the greatness of Sara Toby Moore, start by picturing a windup toy cranked past its breaking point: potential energy coiled and vibrating, chomping to spring, charging the air around it. But to fully appreciate any single antic in her The Mechanix is to catalog a whole host of superpowers. Her imagination unfurls. Her rigor hones it. Her communicative power clarifies it. Her openness to the vagaries of the moment keeps it honest, and her heart makes it matter."
"The Mechanix says clowning can save the world."
"In the script, Moore picks out absurdity and surprise in language with a superhuman ear."
"Whatever your spiritual practice, after spending time with Moore, you might be ready to convert to her religion of awe and play."
