  • performing class by Preston Choi
    21 Jul. 2020
    “ Choi crafts a dynamic and physical exploration of class and exploitation. I enjoyed the use of occupation, family, and obligation to highlight each character's needs for financial or artistic stability. I felt like I was in a theatre mash up of "Parasite" and "Crazy Rich Asians" - and I mean that in the absolute best way. A fast and thrilling play! ”

HONEY BEE BABY asks questions about reproductive rights in a hyper-political future, while raising awareness about our dwindling natural resources.

  • Good Cuban Girls by Iraisa Ann Reilly
    9 Mar. 2019
    “ GOOD CUBAN GIRLS is a fiery and heartfelt look at inter-generational women. Reilly observes Cuban and Cuban-American culture in an honest and comical way, showcasing the differences in the American-born experience. Magical moments between Marisol and her abuela root the play in faith and poetry while the relationship between Marisol and her white boyfriend, Todd, bring an element of comedy and specificity to the American-born/immigrant-kid identity. ”
