“Snelling is a super charismatic performer; I’d happily crawl through paddocks of broken glass to see this show.”

“Snelling’s incredible control over her body while performing is sublime to watch and she takes great pleasure in playing with the gothic and the grotesque.”

“In the hands of a lesser artist, this could be an indulgent romp, but in Snelling’s sure grasp, what we have is an entertaining, at times deeply moving, look at the nature of the human condition.”
“Chief villain Dostoyana Ursine (Andi Snelling) is given abundant pathological rage and loathing and very nearly steals the show. Clearly not about to be limited by the radio play format, Snelling contorted her face to show disdain and malevolence, and made her fellow actors call on superhuman reserves of stoicism to avoid laughing.”
“Clown-like, engaging... Andi is an accomplished singer, a talented and warm performer.”

“Snelling demonstrates an amazing understanding of her physical body in space as she replicates a zombie, and those scary late night shadows, clinging to floors and walls in her torturous everlasting night.”

“Her honesty is refreshing and moving. The writing is impeccable. The performance is seamless.”
“The standout is Andi Snelling as the Russian-accented baddie Dostoyana Ursine.”
“Funny and brave construction of art from life... Snelling is very funny, witty and a natural clown... This is a packed 60 minutes with no false steps and very revealing”
“Snelling’s big hearted openness embraces the audience and holds them affectionately close... The audience felt, and truly was, at one with Snelling.”
“You can’t help but love Snelling’s animated facial expressions and pantomime-like movements. Her style is unique, clever and charming.”
“The chorus of maids - here Jane Barry, Andi Snelling and Mia Landgren - are compellingly morbid caricatures, by turns sexy, caustic and finally, baleful. There are also fine impressions of the clever, gangsterish Odysseus.”
“I am charmed by Snelling’s vivacity, her clever transition from narration to song to dance and to moments of quiet reflection... A performer who lights up the stage.”

“Intelligent playing from a gifted and tight-knit cast.”
“Particularly effective (is) Snelling’s vicious grin as Odysseus.”

“Very fine performances.”
“The characters are richly developed and beautifully played by four very talented actors.”
