REVIEW: The Welkin careens from raucous comedy to crushing tragedy "An effective staging by Weyni Mengesha makes for compelling viewing of a suspenseful story that sifts through centuries of sexist sediment like an archaeological dig." www.intermissionmagazine.ca/reviews/the-...

Great to catch up with the Soulpepper, Crow's Theatre & The Howland Company production of Lucy Kirkwood’s THE WELKIN dir by Weyni Mengesha, with a sold-out Sunday matinee crowd. Runs till Oct 5 and well worth your time with this terrific group. www.soulpepper.ca/performances...

LOVED KING GILGAMESH when I saw it in the previous run. Seeing The Welkin next month after all the praise.

Lucy Kirkwood’s The Welkin (Soulpepper/Crows/The Howland Company) blows open the doors to the Toronto theatre season. Featuring a huge cast of mostly women, this show is everything: smart, funny, challenging, and oh god the last 20 minutes are intense! Mayko Nguyen & Bahia Watson are next level.
