"Either way, I’m going to go look at the penguins at the Maryland Zoo ... the funny little birds I suspect I’ll never see the same way again, and I’m going to try harder. If not for us, for them. For them." ​

- The Bad Oracle

"The only negative I can offer about Salty is that it only runs for two weekends ... Please don't miss this."

- Baltimore Theater Reviews​

​
