CRITICS ARE RAVING
“Deborah Gilmour Smyth continues to prove one of San Diego’s most affecting, intuitive and tireless actors. Now she brings to the stage a Carrie Watts such as Horton Foote must have intended, a woman of grit and spirit aching for inner peace and for home.
The integrity of Foote’s play, so fully realized at Lamb’s, is its power to make us “see” Bountiful in all its faded beauty!”
David Coddon / Stage West
“Horton Foote’s gem is staged with patience, grace, and heart!”
Milo Shapiro / Stage & Cinema
“Two months ago, Deborah Gilmour Smyth played another elderly woman in Backyard Renaissance’s “The Waverly Gallery,” giving a performance so good she was nominated for an acting award by the San Diego Theatre Critics Circle. She’s done it again in THE TRIP TO BOUNTIFUL!”
Pam Kragen /SD Union-Tribune
BOUNTIFUL “tugs at my heartstrings for its humility, humanity, simplicity, peace, acceptance and grace. Ms. Gilmour Smyth as Carrie Watts, is the frosting on the cake!”
Carol Davis / It’s Fun To Go Out!
