“McMahon and Theatre Republic are very good at finding high-calibre new Australian plays. Angus Cerini’s The Bleeding Tree comes to mind, as do the new works by Emily Steel. And here we are again. This is an excellent production of an outstanding play. It is one of the highlights of the year..” - Murray Bramwell, InReview
“Corey McMahon’s directing has a firm and polished hand, he hasn’t missed a moment. These four actors hold the space and tell the story with polished ease. The set, costume and lighting design are so good you really don’t notice them (that’s a compliment); production design by Meg Wilson, lighting design by Nic Mollison and the icing on the cake is Jason Sweeny’s energetic and disturbing music/soundscape.” - Adrian Barnes, Glam Adelaide
“Adelaide-based Theatre Republic explores the delicate complexities of mental health in its evocative re-imagining of Australian playwright Kendall Feaver’s haunting work The Almighty Sometimes. Thought-provoking and insightful, The Almighty Sometimes is a powerful representation of an extremely personal issue, respectfully told from differing yet intertwining points of view. A must-see production” - Trista Coulter, ArtsHub
