State of Women: Review

The Mind Reels
by TD Rideout

“But the character that benefitted the most from the re-worked script is Karen Scobie’s Pepper, and this is very much her show. I mentioned before that Pepper’s character is the heart of the show, and that is even more so now, she is the beating heart, the thing that ties everyone, and every storyline in the show together, and Scobie is up for the challenge. Watching her emote on stage as Pepper goes through her life you’d be hard pressed to find a dry eye. She turns in a masterful performance heightened by her interactions with Owslany and brought to dramatic conclusion by the efforts of Finckle and her would-be beau Oscar (Trevor Ketcheson).”
