"Catherine Trieschmann's The Bridegroom of Blowing Rock celebrates the transportive, seductive power of storytelling even as the playwright spins her own tale of life in the North Carolina mountains at the ragged end of the Civil War."
— The Miami Herald

"Trieschmann's script is excellent...several scenes approach transcendence."
— Broward Palm Beach New Times
