    A simple moment between two men has a profound impact. This short play is visceral and moving, as well as very funny. Feed the birds — you'll be glad you did!

    Ah, the hope, the tension, the beer, the fear, and the desire! This play captures the intricate workings of the heart during a difficult time, and makes you realize that patience can be very beautiful. Look to the stars!

  • Lolly Ward: A Sign Is a Sign by Peter Dakutis
    “

    This play is like an arrow to the heart — who doesn't want to feel needed, to find one's purpose? There is great depth in the simplicity and sparkling humor in the characters' relationship. The sign says to do this play!

    So freakin' funny! The twists and turns keep you on your toes, and the characters continue to develop in delicious ways. I want to castaway with these guys.

  • Lolly Ward: TAKE IT OUTSIDE!!! by Rich Orloff
    “

    THE TOTAL SPIRITUAL will make you rethink every assumption you had about the afterlife, and it will have you laughing — and possibly tearing up — while you do. The simple staging is a perfect foil for life's biggest questions. Sink your whole body into this one.

  • Lolly Ward: A Monogamy of Swans by John Minigan

    It's a beautiful thing to watch the themes dance in this play — swans, life mates, self-knowledge, heartbreak, and love all swirl together with Boston dark humor and a good dose of tossed rocks. Have a great time with this piece!

  • Lolly Ward: BREAK TIME by Desireé York

    This play is so real, so raw, and so moving. York tackles the big issues with a quiet skill, from the toughest addictions to the hardest life choices. I fell in love with these women.

  • Lolly Ward: Stephanie. From the Posters. by Samantha Marchant
    “

    This powerful play taps into a father's fear of monsters — those lurking out there, and the ones we fear inside. Marchant captures two very different kinds of dads who both love their daughters and are searching for how to raise them and keep them safe.

    Hilarious! These three memorable characters are all distinct and inhabit a world that's both familiar and refreshingly out there. Landmann's writing is real and smart. Have fun with this one!
