“Thus the ensemble finds itself in the forest of Arden, brilliantly imagined in this adaptation as a queer bar. A smooth spin of the set reveals a patio stage and a wall of colorful crates adorned with photos of 66 Bay Area queer elders, from icons such as Harvey Milk and comedian Margaret Cho to lesser-known figures, whose names are all listed in a program insert that encourages audience members to learn more about them.”-SF Chronicle
“Though the Forest of Arden looks absolutely nothing like a forest in Randy Wong-Westbrooke's delightfully detailed set, its reveal elicited gasps from the audience, enraptured as I was by it. I will spare you a description and save you the surprise. As wondrous as Wong-Westbrooke's set is, it is merely the backdrop for the many thrilling performances by a highly-skilled cast.” -TalkingBroadway
“The set (Randy Wong-Westbrooke) is gorgeous, especially the Forest of Arden. The unusual materials used to create the set are perfect for evoking a liberated artistic haven.” -Pacific Sun
