“When I learned Violet would be directed by Hayter, who helmed last season’s Ovation Award-nominated production of Parade, I couldn’t wait to go. The director did not disappoint, once again using an elegantly minimalist stage to transform the Chance’s intimate space into something expansive and engaging.”

“Beyond the charm of the set, the magic of this production is the music. Monica Peña‘s voice imbues adult Violet with the soul she needs to hold your attention. Her counterpart, Rebeka Hoblik, is uncannily cast as Young Violet in both appearance and vocal chops.”

“When the cast comes together as a chorus for the final number, their communal voice is so powerful that it evokes chills.”

“The music, the performances and the overwhelming charm of the Chance are well worth the modest investment for tickets, and if you walk out debating it, as I did, you’ll know you’ve had a robust and complete evening at the theatre.”
