Lorraine Treanor, DC Theatre Scene
Actor Cathy Conneff turns in a stunning performance of DC playwright Richard Byrne’s Day 21.
Graeme Strachan,

It's Conneff who glues the whole together, acting as a bridge between the audience, the characters, and the emotional core of the story. Lil's steely but brittle resolve to bring the man she loves back from the mockery he's become is genuinely touching.
Ricky Brown, Edinburgh Reporter
Cathy Conneff is outstanding from start to finish.
Alistair Maxwell, The List
It is Cathy Conneff as suffering wife Lil who steals the show. Her pain is visible every time she is dismissed as 'madam', and her increasing desperation as she forces herself to act out her husband's delusions in an attempt to bring him back from the depths of insanity, provides the show's emotional core.
Rory Ford, The Scotsman
Cathy Conneff is mordantly realistic.
Fiona Mossman, Broadway Baby
Cathy Conneff does an outstanding job of portraying the scientist, Bryony Adams, who is struggling to resolve these conflicts.
Tim Bano, The Stage
Conneff’s Lil is a great chameleon playing both Adam’s wife and all the other characters in the book.
Laura Kressly, My Theatre Mates
Bryony is a despicable character that Cathy Conneff plays admirably, particularly as she begins to emotionally deteriorate.
Her ability to maintain audience focus through compelling embodiment of the character is excellent.
