"A genuinely fragile, complex piece of work....the weather-minded [Baby Screams Miracle] functions atmospherically, establishing a sense of ongoing, endless menace. It's ruthlessly clever at taking us into the eye of the storm." - Time Out New York "Clare Barron’s new play is a solid structure with the potential to weather any impending storm...It would be cliche to say that one will be 'blown away' by this production or 'swept off one’s feet,' but the sentiment still applies, and the accolades are deserved. Baby Screams Miracle is a testament to the ambition of Clubbed Thumb, and it also demonstrates the necessity of producing works by emerging writers like Ms. Barron." - Theatre Is Easy "Clubbed Thumb has rarely presented a show more on target with their mission of producing 'Funny, Strange, Provocative' new writing than with its season opener Baby Screams Miracle. This new play by Clare Barron takes an American family already deeply enmeshed in its own weirdness and plunges them suddenly into a chaotic world that grows stranger by the minute." - New York Theatre Review
