"A Haunting - and Hilarious - Night at The Moors"
The College Voice
​
"The Moors featured Brielle Blood ‘24 as Agatha, the stern, conniving lady of the house ... Blood portrays Agatha with a steely core, an unwavering refusal to bend to anyone’s will but her own. Yet, over the course of the play, as she grows closer to Emile, who reveals herself to be far less naive than she initially appears, Agatha seems to soften, allowing herself moments of vulnerability at Emilie’s hands as the play approaches its climactic conclusion. Despite her abrasive personality, the audience cannot help but root for Agatha as she reveals the desperation for some level of control that drove her to make her choices, even as she meets an untimely end.

"While all that tense drama is unspooling, with the Kellers and Deevers teetering atop a powder keg of lies and recrimination, Miller contrasts that conflagration with the mundane lives of their next door neighbors, Dr. Jim Bayliss (Ryan McNeill) and wife Sue (Brielle Blood), and Lydia (Emily Gerges) and Frank Lubey (Paul Halley), plus son Bert (Demetrius Placido).
All the actors are solid in their critical supporting roles. Mr. McNeill, who always excels in his stage work, brings a dry resignation as an overworked, jaded spouse who escapes for some peace of mind to Joe’s backyard man cave. As Sue Bayliss, Ms. Blood makes a particularly strong impression locking horns in a fraught scene with Ms. Rodriguez’s Ann, where both give as good as they get."
