"Against it all, inside it all, Sera Bourgeau's tapestry of costumes: sepia toned flannels and corduroy as a base for these storytellers who live now, who lived then, who live always. Overlaying these are the more fantastical elements to nod at the monstresses we see..." -Zelda Knapp, A Work Unfinishing

"The artistic design is mostly makeshift and minimal, reflecting the format of a bunch of creative bandmates having fun and acting out their contemporary takes on the tales...Costumes by Sera Bourgeau look equally modest and impromptu, with the characters donning fabrics, masks, and accessories on top of their every day clothes (the snakeskin print on Echidna is especially clever and fits her long-legged serpentine moves)."
​-Deb Miller, DC Theater Arts

"Set design by Jiaying Zhang and costumes by Sera Bourgeau are a testament to how clever and evocative one can be without spending money."
​-Alix Cohen, Woman Around Town
