“It’s a most welcome return. I’m very glad you are back, TUTA. The scene has been the more impoverished for your long absence.
The wacky, crazy show in question, performed for your pleasure by an all-in cast under the direction of the highly skilled avant-guardist, Aileen Wen McGroddy, is “Attempts on Her Life” from 1997.” - Chris Jones, The Chicago Tribune

"RECOMMENDED—It's good to see TUTA return to live production for the first time since the 2020 shutdown with a revival of Crimp's challenging but compelling piece... those who are already fans or merely curious should hurry to get tickets" - Kerry Reid, Chicago Reader

"unlike most plays you will see on Chicago stages" - Nancy Bishop, Third Coast Review
