“The performances are of various types. Best of all is Nicole Jeannine
Smith, who as Mae is the moral center of the drama and a genuinely complex character. Smith excels in this leading role, combining mania and anguish, and easily dominating the other strong personalities with her charismatic, kinetic presence”. –Review of Chapel Perilous by Mark E. Leib in Creative Loafing July 2012
