Intellectually arresting and darkly comic… a thoroughly engrossing and provocative evening of theatre. Not to be missed.

"It’s good writing to open a play with intimately drawn characters. In close quarters, drama is more personal and immediate—it creates conditions ripe for introducing information that casts preceding actions in a new and unexpected light, creating a sense of vertigo. Fata Morgana, the latest production by Boise Contemporary Theater, uses this vertigo to reveal a compelling vision of psychological terror... Fata Morgana packs a wallop. It’s clever overall, funny in parts and inventive in ways that will draw audiences in. Be warned, though: It isn’t for the faint of heart. "  - Harrison Barry (Boise Weekly) ​

" Mahoney plays with reality in the same way with a string of deftly crafted domestic scenes — little pearls of relatively normal family dysfunction — that increase in intensity until they drop you into an ending of Medea-like proportions. This is a stellar first production of an exceptional play that deserves multiple future productions. It will be interesting to follow Mahoney’s and the play’s journey from here. "   - Dana Oland, The Idaho Statesman
