  • David Davila: The Language of the Unheard (previously Inutil)

    Beautiful, and poetic, this play examines the ripple effects of trauma, systemic oppression, and racism on the family members of those who who are effected by them. At the center of the story an artist and a police officer form an unlikely bond that they are unable to pursue due to the emotional baggage they've been bonded to. An important examination on the futility of facing systems of oppression, with a haunting and satisfying end. I highly recommend.

  • David Davila: The Gatekeeper

    A searing condemnation of the dark side of Hollywood, and what people will do to hold onto the power that celebrity brings. What might seem like a romantic comedy at first look turns into a dark spiral as our characters plunge into the abyss of desperation while seeking the ever illusive idea of validation.

  • David Davila: The Wrong Box

    I've been lucky enough to sit on readings of this hilarious musical over the years and I can't get enough of these cooky characters, brilliant lyrics, and hilarious surprises! A fabulous ensemble piece that deserves a full production ASAP. I hope I get to see it too!

  • David Davila: The Nose

    This was the first musical I was lucky enough to catch by the very talented Kit Goldstein Grant. I cannot recommend this musical enough. It lives in the beautiful hybrid land of opera and musical, with hilarious over the top characters, costumes, and jokes... and a fabulous story that's fun for all ages. This is perfect for university musical & opera programs, and regional theaters!

  • David Davila: The Giant Hoax

    This is an absolute WONDERFUL musical for the whole family about finding your truth when the entire world is lying. A pretty important message these days; with fabulous ear worms that you'll be humming for days. I was lucky enough to catch the Off-Broadway production and this is the perfect musical for a high school or university to perform for their fall show!

  • David Davila: McGurk's Suicide Hall, a fictional account of actual events

    This is such a cool concept for a musical, I wish I had written it myself. I was fortunate enough to attend a reading, and fell in love with the entire world they've created and the cool rocking music! I can't wait to see this on stage with a full cast and elaborate costumes! Highly recommend!

  • David Davila: Mixed Messages

    A hilarious mix of drawing room comedy and farce, this play is filled with unique characters who all have unique perspectives on race, family, and loyalty. I highly recommend to anyone who loves camp, gay love stories, and fabulous matriarchs!

  • David Davila: The Pet Play

    A hilarious, satirical look into the lives of people who are too obsessed with their pets. It has the comic chops of a must-see-tv sitcom with the crowd pleasing adult puppet humor of Avenue Q. This play is genius!

  • David Davila: Cosplay

    A stunning look into the lives of people who live double lives as avatars in video games or hide behind costumes at comic con conventions. This play is a revelation of the levels of loneliness humans can plunge too and the unbelievable things they'll do to escape them. Grief, trauma, and connection come crashing together in the shocking climax that will haunt you for years to come.
