"Wes Mason made a strong impression as Dax. In his interactions with Maya he showed a mix of desire and cynicism. His defiant, heroic aria expressing his dismay at the human condition was one of the high points of the evening."
-Opera News"…particularly solid were the deeper-voiced cast members, with mezzo-soprano Bonet and baritone Mason both giving resonant, high-point renderings in their roles. (As Larry in act three, the latter turned up the pathos for his tortured impotence aria. “I could take that magic pill but I’d rather use my will,” indeed.)"
