  • Cricket Woman Mother Earth (or) A Nasty Comeuppance by Tiffany Antone
    16 Feb. 2018
    “ Intense, wildly creepy, and entirely theatrical -- Aura and Billy's battle with each other, with a ruined world, and most of all with irritating crickets is gripping from first to last. This is a powerful look at the end of our planet, and a dissection of just how culpable we all are. Terrific. ”
  • EGYPTIAN SONG by James Christy
    5 Dec. 2015
    “ A powerful, significant play examining, among other things, straight male terror of fully empowered women. Chilling and funny and serious and frankly amazing. ”
  • Technicolor Life by Jami Brandli
    1 Dec. 2015
    “ I just love this bold, seriously American play. The strength of Brandli's writing lies in her flawed, fully human characters -- they're great to spend time with, and their story here is gripping and powerful. I hope this piece gets produced everywhere. ”
  • Four and Twenty Draculas by Daniel McCoy
    5 Aug. 2015
    “ Playful, inventive, hilarious and moving -- Dan McCoy finds a fantastic new spin (or set of spins) on well-established folklore, and the result is smashingly theatrical and never less than interesting. Love it. ”
  • The Joyce Kilmer Service Center by Rich Espey
    22 Jul. 2015
    “ I just love this play -- it totally caught me off guard while also feeling inevitable. A really strong short play about our contemporary American race problem. ”
  • REALS by Gwydion Suilebhan
    16 Jul. 2015
    “ A terrific exploration of core concepts of good and evil that's suitable for audiences of many ages. Subverting the superhero genre to the ends of a deeper look at our unconscious desires to do right AND wrong is a matter for a deft writer to tackle, and Suilebhan is clearly just that. ”
  • Hair Tuck, Half Smile by Vince Gatton
    16 Jul. 2015
    “ A Russian doll of a play, with a center rooted in guilt and loneliness. A lovely, lovely play -- and very funny, to boot. ”
  • FLOWERS IN THE DESERT (the play)/EIGHT DATES (the audio series) by Donna Hoke
    15 Jul. 2015
    “ There's a whole lot of history between characters Britt and Joe, and Donna Hoke's command of their complications and great humor means we want to know more, all the time. A terrific, very grown-up story of what can go wrong between people who love each other, and how hard it can be to right the ship. ”
  • Hookman by Lauren Yee
    5 Jul. 2015
    “ What an intense ride Lexi takes -- and we're along for every second of it. Lauren Yee's HOOKMAN is a powerful examination of how hard it is for young women to be heard, perhaps especially by themselves. A knockout of a play. ”

    “ A scary look at a scary contemporary reality. Gave me shivers. ”
