Press Quotes
“THE SECOND DEATH OF PRISCILLA, a look inside the mind of a woman who’s losing it, is a play of shifting reality and poetic beauty … Russell Davis’s play, [is] a childhood story twisted into a metaphorical fairy tale for grownups … Priscilla is a woman afraid to leave her room. Her mind is besieged by an obsessive internal voice, depicted as a wolf disguised as a man … He lurks outside Priscilla’s window. He stalks, beguiles and snarls in his effort to keep Priscilla under his control … I found myself lost in Priscilla’s delusion and moved by her transformation …” —Judith Egerton, The Courier-Journal (Louisville)
