“It is easy to surrender to the charms of The Mollusc, a gentle and entertaining work that receives a spot-on production by the Quotidian Theatre Company.”

“Malinda Smith’s performance… (is) one of the most entertaining comedic performances of the year. John Decker is perfectly cast… Steve Beall’s performance drives the story… Laura (Russell) makes a suitably charming and demure Miss Roberts.”
