Audience Feedback
What audiences had to say about 'Blue Stockings':


"Superb show, great acting. One of THE best Persephone productions. Congratulations to all for bringing this wonderful play to Montreal!"

"I am a teacher at CEGEP du Vieux Montréal in the Languages Department. I brought my night class of 12 students to your production on October 23. Attending a play together as a class is one of my favourite things to do whenever I have a night class. My students really enjoyed the play and were amazed by all of the hard work and preparation the director, the actors, and technical crew put into the production.

I will definitely keep an eye out for your future productions!

Thanks again and congratulations to everyone involved in your production of 'Blue Stockings'!"

"GO SEE THIS IF YOU CAN SNAG A TICKET. 1896, Cambridge, badass scientist women fighting for their right to education. A story told with lovely nuance and vulnerability. It's MARVELOUS."

"We absolutely loved the play. [...] Maeve was one of our favourite characters, her story really reminded us of both our mothers and touched us deeply. I noticed the actor was also your choir director - I loved that some live singing was incorporated into the play! So many more good things to say... thank you for a wonderful afternoon and bravo to all!"

"What a great play that was! I read it the week prior but seeing it on stage was twice as good. I thought you did a fabulous job with the minimal set. The acting was great, not a weak link in the whole group."

"Wonderful play, great acting and such an interesting subject with historical values. We really enjoyed ourselves!"

"Tonight, I attended 'Blue Stockings', a play my old dance professor had directed with Persephone Productions. I was very impressed with the caliber of this work. [...] It is a really professional and relevant production about the historic fight for women's rights (including the right to earn a diploma) – and a great walk down memory lane for me!"

"We really enjoyed Blue Stockings last night. Well cast, energetic, and very entertaining. You did a wonderful job in bringing it to the stage."

"The intentions of the play were pure and so visible. I want to thank Persephone Productions for putting on such a wonderful play! I look forward to seeing more productions in the future."

"The play identified courage, emotions, passions, unity, friendship, and love....! A journey of a time in life and a learning experience that will surely be continued to talk about for days to come. Great dedication and hard work from the actors in it."

"I received very positive reactions from my students about Persephone's production of 'Blue Stockings' and I want to congratulate you once again for managing to put on (and pull off!) this wonderful play. I am sure it is no easy task to be so intimately involved in such an undertaking! [...] It is very culturally enriching for college students to be exposed to live theatre early on in their lives and we can only hope that they will make supporting live theatre a life-long habit. Thanks again and best of luck on future productions!"

"Enjoyed it very much. Some really impressive performances."

"Great show – enjoyed it from start to finish. Cannot wait for your next project!"
