"for characterizations pure to saucy to drunken to instructive to thoroughly corrupt; from direct, clear types -- protagonist, antagonist, anti-hero, lover, clown -- to oddball, what-am-I-seeing-can’t-take-my-eyes-off-it portraits, the latter most brilliantly fired to life by a chameleonic, riveting Amber Bird. Her “fat” Prince Kazbeki arrives from another world, yet when she’s on, she is the world. Happily, when not Prince-ing it up, Bird returns as an addled Monk and others." - Mark Hughes Cobb, Tuscaloosa News
"One other’s free to go kookoo: Die Alte (“the old”), played by Amber Bird with an unnerving blend of restraint and abandon, mute horror and sudden disruption. [...] Chesney’s slick gloss never shares a stage with Bird’s Die Alte, recalling nightmarish images from Miyazaki’s “Spirited Away,” and that’s for the best, as together, they’d overwhelm." - Mark Hughes Cobb, Tuscaloosa News
"Amid the crockpot temperatures of the Southern summer, Levy and an ensemble of University of Alabama theatre students toured a devised play about the Civilian Conservation Corps—in the very state parks that the corps built. [...] On the grassy stage and under the shade of the trees, young, sweating colleagues performed theatre for the Deep South." - Alex Ates, American Theatre
