←Recommendations of Dunk City

Native Staten Islander approved!! Charming, hilarious, and full of heart. No one writes an all-up-in-your-business mom better.

Dunk City is so funny and surprisingly sweet. It can also be scary if you're like me and afraid of families with no boundaries.

Dunk City is a laugh-out-loud-riot filled with so much heart and love. All told from Stephen's singular voice and sense of humor. While these characters are unique and distinct, we also know them from our own lives. And Dunk City is a stealthy exploration of masculinity and the pressures put on young people to have sex - sometimes from their own families. I can't recommend this play enough. An incredibly funny play that has something to say about the world we live in.

this play rocks. super fun characters, great monologues, and an ending that just radiates warmth.

Hands down, the funniest American comedy I’ve seen in a long time. At Florida Rep’s PlayLab (and with a dynamite cast), it was at turns broad, dirty, charming, silly but shot-through with tender characters and a great big heart. The Staten Island-set play keeps you guessing about the root of the main character’s condition (could the overpowering Italian-American mama be the cause?), but surprises await. For a play about coming of age and becoming a man, it’s a pulsing valentine to innocence. Stephen Brown is the love child of John Patrick Shanley and Albert Innaurato.

This play is so funny and touching and specific. I love these characters. The reading I witnessed was the funniest thing I saw this year.
