“…Hellman’s 1939 drama is… enduring entertainment, a theatrically effective indictment of human greed and its destructive power.” –Charles Isherwood, Broadway News

"This play is one of the reasons we wanted to start the Classic Theater in the first place,” said actor/director Anthony Ciaravino, one of the co-founders of the now established thespian company located in the Deco District. “It is so timely; this play could be written today, that’s how relevant it is. It’s about the dangers of capitalism that destroys families and runs over people, especially poor people.” -Jasmine Wellinghoff, Arts Alive San Antonio

"Though it was written more than 80 years ago, playwright Lillian Hellman’s The Little Foxes still resonates with its themes of classism, racism and the damaging effects of unbridled greed, all of which are sadly still with us today. It also points an accusing finger at the way women are treated by society — and how they’re expected to behave." -Kurt Gardner, ArtSceneSA

"Kelly Hilliard’s portrayal of the iconic role is a tour de force; it is everything Vivien Leigh’s Scarlett O’Hara should have been and wasn’t. Her command of the stage never falters, and her physicality conveys more with a raised eyebrow than a raised voice." -Donna Provencher, The Kerrville Daily Times
