“In Theatre Republic’s galvanising production in the Space Theatre, director Corey McMahon has managed the many threads, emotions, pros and cons, hopes and disappointments for an unblinking two hours.” - 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
