“The Appeal depicts how the quest for artistic greatness is not smooth sailing, and Purdum’s production humorously and poetically encapsulates this struggle. […] Purdum’s entertaining production exposed the human flaws of genius, and how the poets of the canon are forever trapped in a circular time loop forever aiming for the extraordinary, when truly, they are ordinary, just like us.”
