"In Columbus, a city circled by cul-de-sacs and Volvo-driving soccer moms, no musical is more appropriate for a local production than Suburb. Red Herring Theatre Ensemble’s performance swirls in the suburban American dream in all its idealism and (sur)reality ... The show lovingly mocks suburbia, from the worship of barbecued meat to the wonders of mowing grass. It also celebrates the ’burbs as a family-rearing utopia. The musical - a piece of Americana unto itself — is the perfect, campy medium to bring the suburbs to stage... The show couldn’t have found a better cast, or a better suited home outside the ’burbs themselves." —Columbus Alive 2/6/03
