"Sherman has written a gem of a show.
[Ondine] has found the perfect setting under Rob Melrose’s direction in Cutting Ball’s cozy theater."
     
- Ilana Walder-Biesanz

Stark Insider 

"Ondine‬ is a lyrical interplay of alchemical, emotional and culinary interactions with the rhythms of breath and the sea. 
Luxuriantly staged by Rob Melrose, and performed with athletic grace and playfully sensual intensity...densely poetic…an extended tone poem on love."  

-Robert Hurwitt

ONDINE - THE CUTTING BALL THEATER

"Ondine is one of the most memorable productions of the year. 

There's a fleeting quality about Ondine, like something sweet that dissolves on your tongue as soon as you taste it…But while it does last, it's honest and worthwhile and sometimes beautiful." 
– Adam Brinklow
