"Brightly surreal, loopily comic...inventively staged by Sarah Blush for the Hearth, 'Racecar' is linguistically frolicsome, emotionally unflinching"
- Laura Collins-Hughes, The New York Times



"Sharp, swift, silly tragedy, directed by Sarah Blush with an eye for maximum discombobulation"
-Helen Shaw, The New Yorker



"It’s like a slyly subversive billboard on an abandoned highway. Blink and you’ll miss it...Director Sarah Blush maintains a frantic pace throughout, speeding down I-90 at 100 so that we never quite get a hold of the rules of this slippery play"
-Zachary Stewart, TheaterMania



"Tart and tightly crafted...punches you in the gut...Sarah Blush leans in to all its hiccups and needle-skips...Blush keeps perfect control of the play’s tone as it lurches closer to and farther from realism, as the sinister undercurrents ebb and flow."
-Loren Noveck, Exeunt



"Expertly uses absurdity...replete with inventive staging decisions...a phantasmagorical fluidity that encompasses past and future, imagined and real"
-John R. Ziegler and Leah Richards, Thinking Theater



"In director Sarah Blush's production for The Hearth, one that can twist the brain with its steadfast refusal to linger on moments...theatrically quite thrilling"
-Michael Dale, Talkin Broadway

"Mixes reality with fantasy in a liminal space between sanity and insanity. This story operates from a different dimension the moment one walks into the performance space"
-Scotty Bennett, Theater Scene



"Packs an emotional punch...a ride worth taking"
-Deirdre Donovan, Off Off Online
