“
An eye opening journey of one's life and where she is in her journey. Moving and well done. ”

“
A play about finding oneself stuck, STALLED moves with great dynamism and ease, taking the audience on a well-crafted and poignant journey through the protagonist's life, where we recognize the pain, humor, and tenderness that are all a part of growing up, falling in love, and realizing our life may not be what we had once hoped for. The car becomes its own character, enacted by the actors, which makes STALLED a truly theatrical experience and one that is sure to engage and delight audiences. ”
