  • The Most Spectacularly Lamentable Trial of Miz Martha Washington
    6 Mar. 2020
    A rip-roaring, unrelenting. much needed recontextualization of a significant moment in our young nation. Beautiful at its best and hideous at its worst-- this play demands to be heard from start to finish.
  • Culver City Fever: Scenes from a Show Business Friendship
    8 Jul. 2019
    Ellis' two aging actresses are beautifully nuanced and genuinely funny as they navigate their old grudge and reconcile and old friendship. This feel-good comedy provides two awesome roles for middle-aged women and a very unique take on our romanticized concept of stardom.
  • Paper Dream
    20 Jun. 2019
    The mark of a good period piece is that it retains its relevance in our modern world. Paper Dream excels in this area. With beautifully developed characters, an engaging plot, and a well-researched historical and cultural context, this is definitely a story worth telling. History buffs and those with an interest in social justice will find this very worthwhile!
  • ACCOMMODATION
    3 Feb. 2019
    After seeing ACCOMMODATION read by Ignition Arts, my mind was absolutely buzzing with questions, none of which have easy answers. Burdick has done a beautiful job starting a conversation about the way our education system overlooks individual human beings-- students and teachers!-- for the sake of appearances and test scores. This play is deliciously infuriating and thought-provoking, and of interest to anyone who has recently encountered the education system in any way!
  • To Be An Invincible Woman
    29 Jun. 2018
    Smith has a tactful and exciting way of bringing fresh humanity to two prolific historical figures. Her imagery is lovely, the relationship between the two women is endearing and heart-wrenching, and overall the script takes you on as many highs and lows as Amelia Earhart's airplane. A sincere, well-researched gem of a ten-minute play!
