“She’s naked.
She’s in a bathtub.
And she’s brilliant. ”
“There are best friends, parents, journalists and even shrinks who don’t have half the power of listening, empathy, insight and follow up that Siobhan has. ”
“Brave, funny, and surprisingly uplifting.”
“It’s O’Loughlin’s approachability as a storyteller and a listener that makes Broken Bone Bathtub both compelling theater and a cathartic group experience.”
“O’Loughlin, the afflicted Aphrodite, is as wonderful as her deceivingly delicate show.”
““Broken Bone Bathtub” offers ticket buyers what “The Avengers” doesn’t — a formalized, unique setting to socialize outside of your comfort zone. It doesn’t just “feel” like an intimate conversation among strangers about deep subjects. It is one.”
“This show demands interaction and self-identification. But it doesn’t really demand you to disclose anything. O’Loughlin requests it, and her manner is so earnest, her blue-sparkled eyes so curious, you can’t help but spill your guts.”
“Inspired, intimate, beautiful. ”
“A cracking play. ”
“Moving, uplifting, empowering.”
“Genuine and joyful.”

“I left the show with a warm, bubbly glow, and found myself wanting to be more consciously kind.”
“A strange, comforting, and magical show that left me tremendously moved and deliriously hopeful.”
“Broken Bone Bathtub uses cleansing as a metaphor, invites healing both physical and emotional, and does so with an insistence that hugs you like warm bath water.”
“Broken Bone Bathtub brings you into this woman’s world and, by the time it is over, you will want to revisit it again.”
“Siobhan O’Loughlin is nothing if not fearless. ”
“O’Loughlin’s courage to be naked in a bathtub, her willingness to expose herself to vulnerability and sadness, was inspiring, and worth getting caught in the rain for.
”
“Siobhan O’Loughlin is warm and engaging, immediately putting the audience at ease with her charm and floppy brown curly hair.”
“A delightful, boundary-breaking, unforgettable night of theatre that takes bravery and heart.”
“This is one of the most special solo shows I’ve ever seen, and I won’t soon forget it.”
“A strange and unique kind of magic.”
“Lovely, funny, and poignant.”
“Eloquent in its simplicity and beautifully crafted in its complexity.”
“If we, like O’Loughlin and her activist friends, believe a kinder world can exist, Broken Bone Bathtub helps us create that world, one bath at a time.”

“Genuine and joyful.”
