About the production
In a seedy Oklahoma motel room, a lonely waitress and a drifter bond over his growing conviction that they are being infested by bugs planted by the government.
“Kimberly Senior's juicy Redtwist Theatre production of Tracy Letts' 'Bug'”
— Chicago Tribune, Chris Jones
“Directed by Kimberly Senior and Jack Magaw, Bug is absolutely sick. And by sick we mean fantastic, in the most superlatively perverse possible sense.”
— Examiner, Catey Sullivan
“As she did in the same space last season with The Pillowman, Senior modulates handily between emotional drama and visceral physicality; she might just be our theatrical version of Kathryn Bigelow.”
— Time Out Chicago, John Beer
“Director Kimberly Senior escalates it with bloody urgency.” “In the second act, Senior zaps, swats, and stings for a chaotic frenzy.”
— ChicagoNow, Katy Walsh
