PRESS

"Drawing on Haitian mythology and the female Symbolist author Rachilde, Jahnke creates a hothouse of racial and sexual tension." - Time Out, New York



"Artful and ethereal: Jahnke paints with light, sounds, actors and words to create tableaux and images that unsettle and distort and provoke and astonish." - Nytheatre.com



"(Jahnke) lives up to his reputation for juxtaposing beautiful set design with grotesque, thought-provoking elements." - Backstage



"Jahnke's reputation for creating gorgeous and arresting stage pictures is well earned." -American Theater Web
