A 6/27/19 NY Times review of Cale's 2019 show We're Only Alive for a Short Amount of Time, which mentions The Redthroats.

"From The Redthroats, in 1986, you might recognize precursors to the new play’s avian imagery—not just those chickens but also the 'bird and animal hospital' young David maintains in an old shed at the back of his house.…Or if you saw A Likely Story in 2004, you will not be surprised to find Judy Garland popping up here as an effigy of tragedy and transcendence. Garland also figures in The Redthroats, as does a family called the Weirds, whose shy son and brutal father are a lot like the ones depicted in We’re Only Alive" (Jesse Green, NYT, 6/27/19).
