Talkin Broadway - Highly Recommended
"...The play, 75 minutes without intermission, was created by the ensemble and is presented in Transatlantic Love Affair's trademark style, which is without scenery or props. Instead, the ensemble create everything needed from a door frame to a fishing boat, and work with imagined props, such as a bartender busily washing glasses and serving drinks, or fishermen lifting flapping fish from their nets to be cut and tossed in with the rest of their catch. The ensemble also provide the sounds that accompany the settings and objects, such as the creak of an old door, the howl of the wind. or the calls of sea birds. The effects are wondrously inventive, and there is never any doubt about what is going on."

"...If you see no other TLA production, you should not miss this latest production of Ballad since it may take another four years before it returns. TLA truly creates an enchanting world for telling this fable."
