"... the girls in The Ritual remind us that we mustn't underestimate young people; while at the same time, we must take responsibility for what they reflect back to us." nytheatre.com
"The Ritual is the most performed play in the 40 year history of the Secondary Schools Drama Festival. I would place this production among the top five Rituals I have seen... a riveting performance." Zeno Obi Constance
