PRESS QUOTES
“MacGregor’s script is a fine-crafted piece of comedy. It’s funny, sometimes outrageous, yet the humor is never forced and flows naturally from the plot. Consider the Oyster is a fresh, unique rendition of an ageless theme: love’s triumph over adversity.”
– Encore Michigan
“… Oyster will definitely get the gears in your head turning after tickling your funny bone and touching your heart.”
