Media Reviews
“Will have you shedding tears of laughter one minute and tears of empathy the next. Just when it veers toward sentimentality, the production steers back toward heart-felt poignancy.” —Waterloo Record
“The kind of play that gives us all reason to have hope in our own families, even when the prospects appear bleakest.” —Waterloo Record
“A big-hearted comedy that will leave you in tears—tears of compassion and recognition as well as tears of joy.” —Waterloo Record
“Sweetly comic, wise and wonderful, it's a journey from anger and estrangement to where the heart reconnects with the joy of what it means to be alive.” —The Hamilton Spectator
“An understanding, gently comic prod, it pokes at how we deal with aging and how difficult it is for parents to let go.” —The Hamilton Spectator
“A series of dramatic confrontations between city and country, birth and death, hospital deliveries and midwifery, French and English Canada, authority and rebellion.” —The Globe and Mail
“Witty and intelligent.” —The Globe and Mail
“A fantastic show that delivers humorous, heartfelt and insightful moments.” —The Elgin Review
“Wholesome humor and the full array of festering family foibles.” —Winnipeg Free Press
“A heavy dose of humor … wonderfully all-out funny, funny moments in the play.” —Huron News Now
“A delight-filled domestic comedy using heart-felt humor to convey its hopeful message about coping with the challenges of family life.” —The London Free Press
“A very, very funny and deeply touching play.” —The View (Hamilton)
“Everything you could hope for—delightfully funny when it wants to be and dramatic when it has to be. Having Hope at Home disarms you with its sitcom architecture, letting you sit back and enjoy some perfectly constructed comedy.” —The Star Phoenix
