Walking Shadow received some lovely End-of-Year* acclaim for our production of THE TRANSDIMENSIONAL COURIER'S UNION, including an Honorable Mention from T.C. Daily Planet, being called a Production That Makes a Difference by the Pioneer Press, a fantastic review on MinnesotaPlaylist, and this brilliant quote from Metro Magazine:

"Walking Shadow followed up on the 2009 sci-fi mind bomb ROBOTS VS. FAKE ROBOTS with an original script by John Heimbuch. The premise was simple enough: a hand-held time-travel device hits the market, becomes as ubiquitous as the iPod, and proceeds to make an absolute hash of anything we currently understand as a coherent timeline. If the premise thrilled the inner geek, the reality went miles beyond: a great cast, tight execution, with genuine thrills and roller-coaster momentum. On any short list for the best local show in the last five years."
