““Accommodation” is an extraordinary play. Truly. And this cast of brilliant, mostly female actors is absolutely incredible. They leave it all on the stage, as they say, with their riveting and poignant performances. As a woman, I would also like to add that the fact that everyone, except the student, is female in this piece which was a stroke of genius. They fight each other and themselves, torn between the instinct to save and the instinct to teach. And I relate completely. Brilliant.
“Accommodation” runs at The lovely Odyssey Theatre for the next couple of weeks and you should absolutely see this fantastic play!!!”

“The play is co-directed by brothers Brandon Baer and Garrett Baer, and they do a splendid job of staging the action. They also extract first class performances from their cast. Bainum is a veritable force of nature as the volatile, disillusioned and burned-out teacher. Her quicksilver emotions roll out effortlessly, smoothly and fully. Bradshaw is sympathetic and utterly believable as a desperate parent advocating for her son.”
