NNNN - "The Festival's first site-specific show is a nail-biting, clock-ticking drama about one of the most urgent issues of our time...What a treat to see two veteran actors rip into their parts...The production sold out its entire run shortly after the play opened, but it's worth trying to get on a wait list to see this explosive show."

★★★ 1/2

"an increasingly intense viewing experience steered skilfully by director Aaron Willis; the design/technical elements are impeccable. Sold out at Next Stage (though a wait list opens up an hour before each show), it deserves a longer run."

"A gripping two-hander, the audience gets an intimate, fly-on-the-wall perspective as a journalist and an oil industry executive go head-to-head over the environmental and human tolls of fossil fuel production and use."

"Outstanding work from Craig and Greenblatt in this intense, insightful, darkly funny and poignant two-hander—keeping us at the edge of our seats..."

"Athabasca by David S. Craig and Richard Greenblatt is full of passion, intelligence, anger and conscience...right up until the last moments one was not sure how it will end...the production as a whole leaves you with a lot to think about."
