  • Darcy Parker Bruce: CURVE OF DEPARTURE

    A beautiful meal of a play. I saw this at Chester Theatre and was completely drawn in.

  • Darcy Parker Bruce: The Tasters

    Fantastic. I love Meghan's work, this play is electric. I could watch this play and read this play over and over but PRODUCE this play because it's beautiful and heart-wrenching and urgent and important. Produce this play.

  • Darcy Parker Bruce: Actually

    This is a play that offers so much to an audience: it's topical and leaves the audience with no easy answer but instead, opens the door for necessary conversation. I'm so glad I got to see the production at TheaterWorks here in Connecticut. What a fantastic new play.

  • Darcy Parker Bruce: Sitting Causes Cancer and Other Modern Tragedies

    This play is sharp. I love Anna's writing, it's so quick and so funny. I'm totally invested in this weird comedy about weed chocolate and ass cancer but also so so so much more. Would also love to design the sound for this if only for the metal remix of the wedding march because what is even happening I love it. This play is a really unique investigation into the unreal pressures of modern day capitalism.

  • Darcy Parker Bruce: The Bookstore

    "So you know how important this store is. It’s more than a store. It’s a haven for words, for knowledge, for beauty. It’s a cathedral and a museum and a garden." I work in a used bookstore that is all of these things and Adam's play just hit me in all the right feels. This play is fun and lighthearted but it also means a lot to me. Adam strikes such a wonderful balance between play and depth and this play wraps itself around you and makes you care. I love it.

  • Darcy Parker Bruce: The Excavation of Mary Anning

    Strange, theatrical, and delightful! I love this play. I've loved Mary Anning since I was a kid and to watch her come to life on the page in this way is just so deeply satisfying, and that's this play: deeply satisfying. I would love a chance to see it staged.

  • Darcy Parker Bruce: You Were Mine

    I'm in love with this play and it's complex simplicity. Such excellent dialogue and intimate moments woven throughout. I care so deeply for these characters.

  • Darcy Parker Bruce: The Violet Sisters

    I loved this play. I loved living in the world of these two sisters struggling to connect to one another and failing spectacularly. A remarkable two-hander that feels intimate and desperate in all the right ways. Gina's attention to details that fill a piece with meaning is also particularly strong. Such a wonderful and satisfying play.

    What a wonderful play about love and death and speaking your truth. This short play packs a big wallop.

  • Darcy Parker Bruce: Orange Julius

    Devastating and gorgeous. Orange Julius is a play that resonates. I love this script and all of its theatrical potential. There are so many reasons why we need this play on the American stage and beyond, please continue to stage, and teach this script.
