    BRONTOMANIA! I love it! This is so much fun! The characters are spot on and fabulous! Great roles! And I loved that there's no pat solution. And it's funny! Funny about literature is hard, but the characters had me rolling!

    LOVE this play and it's heartbreaking story that gives us hope that sometimes there can be a happy ending. Such a super piece! With funny moments even in the midst of the intensity, a very well written play! It would be a huge hit at any festival.

    This is such an inspiring play! And I love that it deals with a subject that is still so ripe for changing - women in baseball! It's a play for all ages for female empowerment - what a joy! Wonderfully conceived and written with great roles for women!

    Having been a Loehmann's shopper all my life, this brought back so many memories and so much emotion! I I love this play! It's massively relatable, and there is a beautiful twist because while you think it's about the dramas that the 2 characters are living, it's really about the connection the two women make together that brings so much hope to both of their situations. Beautifully done!

    What a fun musical that includes so many different sides of many big ideas like gender, drag and cultural appropriation. The drag is hilarious, and the characters are fabulous, like the title. It would be a fun couples' night out! With great discussions to follow.

    BEAUTIFUL work! The reversal in The Plunk is wonderful - any family audience, especially the kids, will love this one! The monologue is fabulous - ACTOR ALERT - great monologue here! And the last piece is just beautiful and fills my heart with joy!

    McClain does it again with another triptych! These are really exciting short pieces! I think everyone should try them. So much fun and yet they seem very deep and profound. Very inspiring!

    Brilliant. Moving. Necessary. What more do we want in our theatre? Here is such a human play that grapples with the questions of identity and allegiance. I love every moment of it!

    A rom-com and a thriller that makes us ask our own questions about how we connect with the people around us. I admire this play for its craft, and I enjoy it for its emotional core.
