    A beautiful play about community and people looking out for each other. Loved how vivid and poetic the stage directions are. Can't wait to see this produced one day. A lighting designer would have a field day with this play.

    A moving exploration of womanhood. Loved the use of the GIRLS chorus and how they compliment the piece with their moments without words.

    A great two-hander about deep and complex human beings. I appreciate how this play doesn't take a hard stand on the ethics of age play. Definitely a play that will spark some fascinating dialogue. Hope to see this produced someday.

    This play imagines a world where no one can die and everyone stays young. This piece of absurdist theatre looks at the pros and cons of that world. Loved getting to know these characters as they all make the choice of whether or not they will let themselves die. A great ensemble piece.

    Loved this celebration of the creative process. Eugenia is a fantastic narrator.

    A delightfully, bizarre play about the artistic process, growing up and our human need to be remembered.

    A fascinating feminist take on Mary Shelley's classic novel. Filled with gorgeous monologues and moments for gory stage effects.

    Maisie is such a wonderfully written character. It's so refreshing to see a female character going after what she wants. She is equal parts funny and heart-breaking. I really found myself rooting for her throughout the whole play. This character will be a gift for young actresses. Loved the magical realism, too!!!
  • Can Your I Love You Hold Me

    Loved the dialogue in this one-act. A play about Black people being portrayed in ways Black people usually don't get to be portrayed on stage. A play about forbidden love that will leave you torn over who belongs with who. More plays like this please!!
