"As befits the painterly subject matter, there are visual delights on offer in the production by director Jenn BeVard, who corrals the performers into various tableaux echoing Gentileschi’s work as the paintings are projected behind them. The staging captures the opera’s multilevel conception, in which the biblical and mythical figures in the paintings serve as autobiographical stand-ins for Gentileschi herself."
"The Wild Party blossomed in director Jenn BeVard's production of synchronized sprawl, recalling both the vaudeville framework of Chicago and the multi-story jigsaw of Follies."
