"More than simply the most artistically complete production I’ve seen in, well, forever – as if that’s not recommendation enough – The NOLA Project’s One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest is an act of cultural reclamation. Essential, vanishingly rare."
- Michael Martin Nola Defender
"It is a rare occasion when I have no comments about a show upon exiting the theatre,
but you rendered me speechless. Well done!"
-Heidi Shueurmann BroadwayWorld
"Throughout, Routhier carefully balances the comic elements with the genuine horrors of the depiction of mental health care of the time."
- Theodore P. Mahne Times-Picayune

"Although nearly five decades have passed since its premiere, Wilson’s walk on the wild side remains shockingly fresh and remarkably contemporary in the hands of Routhier and his cast. ...worthy of national acclaim."
-Theodore P. Mahne Times-Picayune

"Directed by Mark Routhier, the OST production of “Sense and Sensibility” is, simply put, exquisite." - Pam Harbaugh Brevard Culture
"True Jane Austen fans will rejoice atJon Jory's adaptation, which maintains the spirit of the novel and teaches audiences to never assume that one does not love deeply because they do not outwardly show it." - Kimberly Moy BroadwayWorld
"Mark Routhier has the wisdom and experience of a lifetime in theatre while maintaining the excitement and passion of a little kid at play. He provides his actors with a solid stylistic foundation on which to stand, and then allows them the freedom to create and explore the world with wild abandon. I never feel as supported and simultaneously challenged as I do while being directed by Mark. His sense of collaboration and ensemble-building are contagious and each time I work on a play of his, I leave the process a better actor. He's truly a gift to the American stage."
-James Bartelle, Actor/AAD, The NOLA Project
