REVIEWS
“Harsh, yet lovely script by Caitlin Hicks, resonated Friday with the sound of a woman in the audience stifling her tears. . . Just A Little Fever talks about woman’s gift to give life . . .Hicks probes as surely and painfully as with a plumb line.” –Elizabeth Aird, Vancouver Sun
“A compelling drama. A thought provoking essay on freedom of choice and the price we pay for the decisions we make.”
–Alberta Theatre Projects
“Brilliant, powerful play! Gut wrenching, funny, and above all — honest. One of the most complex, tough-minded disquisitions upon “the new woman” and her conflicts in a man’s world. . . By the play’s final moments, when Karen realizes, “There’s no room for us at their table, is there?” I was moved to tears, and so was the woman next to me. You will be haunted for hours, perhaps even days after you see this play. Don’t miss it!”
-Lynne Van Luven, Edmonton Journal
