*"To me [The Testament of Mary is] not blasphemy; it's empathy. And it's
great theater.

~ Andrea Simakis, Cleveland Plain Dealer*


*"Mary’s words sing and McEvoy soars
<http://www.news-herald.com/article/20170707/FEATURES/170709600>." ~Bob
Abelman,** The News-Herald*


*"Anne McEvoy invests [Toíbín's script] with a quiet determination and wry
skepticism that is rich and evocative. And that is something worth seeing,
protests or not."

Howey,** Cleveland Scene*


Imagine the most iconic mother of all time telling her private version of a
story we thought we knew. Colm Toibin’s retelling of the pivotal events in
the life of Jesus Christ through the eyes of Mary the survivor challenges
us to imagine the suffering, courage and strength of mothers on a colossal
scale -- up close and personal. Prepare to join a gifted playwright and
performer in a one-of-a-kind solo journey that will leave you with new
insight and questions, along with a deeper appreciation for human endurance
in the context of mystery.

"Mary stripped bare... A private tete-a-tete with a woman who has an
extraordinary story to tell."

-- The New York Times
