  • Brenda Salas: Where the Fireworks Come From

    What a beautiful and tragic queer love story. It felt personal to all of us LGBTQ folk.

  • Insha Iqbal: Where the Fireworks Come From

    This story felt like a very lovely, honest depiction of two small town kids on the precipice of a huge change. Figuring out your sexuality is hard, especially as teenager in a small town with big plans on the horizon that do not involve introspection. This play left me feeling a little lighter and a little more hopeful, and it has a gorgeous visual metaphor that is worth waiting for.

  • Kaitlyn Huston: Where the Fireworks Come From

    a lovely story of what it's like to be young, queer, and at a major crossroads in life. beautiful, real dialogue with distinct, three dimensional characters. I 100% recommend!

  • Lalita Garcia: Where the Fireworks Come From

    I love this play it really shows how difficult it is to communicate to a friend of the same sex that you like them especially in a small town. We find ourselves waiting for the fireworks and we wonder if they'll ever really come. That transition from graduating high school to what comes next is a big one, and nothing can ever really prepare you for it which I feel is also translated in this play.

  • Jeffrey James Keyes: Where the Fireworks Come From

    I love this play, it really captures the energy, spirit (and butterflies) of what it feels like to be Queer at a certain age. Excellent dialogue, and wonderful storytelling. Thank you, Michael!

  • Yasha Alaniz: Where the Fireworks Come From

    A beautiful and honest story of young queer people discovering and uncovering their own feelings surrounding their romantic relationships and personal sexuality. A beautiful piece.

  • John Busser: Where the Fireworks Come From

    A heartbreaking exchange where the fireworks in question are fired from the characters themselves. Big changes are coming for Tony, and now Gabe offers him a connection that is more than just friendship. Tony is being pulled in multiple directions and the play makes us wonder which way he'll ultimately go. The dialogue is pitch perfect and the stakes are more important by play's end. A wonderful piece.
