    What a wild and engaging story, reminding us that art has always been treated with fear and suspicion. I'd love to see this performed, and to read that banned poetry!

    This is a truly magical play. The language is poetic and wry, the characters are distinct and the situation is full of the ultimate mystery of life and death. It's so original. I would love to see this performed.

  • When the Scythe Met the Stone

    This short play packs a punch. It is dramatic, fast paced and empowering. We need role models of women like Fransciszka who fought back, today more than ever. It has a great female role. Well done!

  • Dirty Laundry

    I just watched an online reading of this wonderful play with The Playwrights' Center. There was so much musicality in the language. I loved the way the chorus was used at times to narrate, clarify, emphasize, or reveal what lay beneath the surface of the various characters in this complex family drama. A great story that held my interest throughout.
  • The Night Ralph Threw Up On Me

    Irwin Hahn is a brilliant story teller. This play is funny , dynamic, and very human. It moves at a fast pace and is full of self deprecating humor. The language is witty and full of irony. I would love to see this produced.
