Circus Diaries’ review described the show as memorable, “Flip Fabrique seem to have a knack for amusing and sentimental froth that suddenly gives way to a real undercurrent of emotion.” The reviewer goes on to add, “The set-up to the show gives us a health and safety warning about extreme weather. The clues are all there that this is a show about climate change. Eyes covered. Blind falls. But then I think they’ve forgotten. Fun-filled skits on the joys of winter seem to be telling a different story.”

Meanwhile, a Chicago-based performance had a great impression on audiences. Third Coast Review wrote, “FLIP Fabrique was able to school the audience with good humor and hard truths on the intensity of the cruelest season, starting with their often-repeated motto, ‘Winter—it’s not a season—it’s a way of life!’ The writer continues that what’s most impressive about the production is that they took an overtone theme such as “Winter” and gave it a remarkable twist. “It has slipped into quaint, magical ruminations that fell flat. But FLIP Fabrique didn’t disappoint because their relationship with winter goes way deeper than the 12-inch nor’easters they repeatedly experience between November and March.”
