Read what some bloggers are saying:

Purple Motes says the show, "brings together family drama, bildungsroman, Broadway musical (think Jesus Christ Superstar), and authentic Greek tragedy to hint at a daring exploration of what is and what will be."

"Director Ethan McSweeny returns to Shakespeare theatre with a wonderfully rich and timelessly modern take on Ion," proclaims Brightest Young Things.

Two Hours Traffic declares Ion to be, "a treat, a sort of theatrical apple tart - tasty and hearty, all at once," and crows, "This is delicious theatre."
