"Seats to savor! As a tie-in to the tuck-in, Snowlion Repertory Company produces 12 short plays about food and the bountiful ways it affects us...The result is a menu of wildly diverse plays...The best smelling play of the season!" | Portland Press Herald
"From the spoofy to the deeply emotional...The Maine Dish shows offer us a wider context for the food that has become such a sophisticated culture in our city. Make an early res for your pre-fixe dinner, so you have time for the feast!" | Portland Phoenix
