Feral Reviews
Chicago Reader- Highly Recommended
"...Aakhu has political points to make, but the considerable power of the play stems from the anger and heartbreak of the characters. The same goes for Carla Stillwell's absorbing production for MPAACT, which features a pair of wrenching performances from Victoria Allen and George C. Stalling as FX's grieving family."

"...While Davis is written as insufferably pretentious, Stalling’s performance as Mr. Ward is heartbreaking. Following his son’s death, guilt is written into every line on his face, and his pride is shattered. But when it recovers, it does so gloriously. Aakhu doesn’t pretend that this story has a tidy ending. It’s better off open-ended, and asks us to acknowledge that the imperfections of the people it depicts is what makes them people. Beyond the politics of the moment, Feral is also a moving family drama, and will hopefully be seen by more people whom it is sure to impact."
