The moms in STAGE MOM are the most deliciously cruel characters I've read in a long time. The play made me thankful my mom was a normal human, and that I'm not putting my kids through the insanity that they are. Very producible, incredibly funny, and it has an ending that surprised me and got me a little choked up. STAGE MOM should be forced viewing material for every parent who lives through their kids' lives.

Lovely and heartbreaking, both characters are so complex and well developed. It's a play I'll be thinking about for a long time. And, as a teaching artist, it's great to have material for young actors that they can connect so well to. Highly recommend!

Hilarious and scary as hell. Yockey has you rooting for very strange and disturbing things to happen. There's one very special entrance that got hoots and hollers at the production I saw. I love this play and can't wait to watch it again.

Pulling the Santa card is tempting to me when my kids are little monsters, but in BE GOOD Eric Pfeffinger takes using imaginary beings as deterrents to the extreme in this disturbing and delightful ten-minute play.

I'm always a sucker for plays that give voices to inanimate objects (and in this case elements too). Lots of opportunity for movement, imagination, and fun.

I found it so touching and never overly sentimental, which with the subject matter of death and losing loved ones is quite an accomplishment. As always I find myself with Lewis' word choice and depth of character.

So deeply personal, specific, and engaging. It looks at gun ownership at a way that surprised me, while also never preaching or demanding I agreed with it. Fantastic play.

Haunting and poetic. A beautiful play that rips your heart out while you willingly let it. Fantastic depth of character and theatricality.

A great two hander that deals with sisters coming to terms with the death of their mother, and what can and can't be done with the wedding dress she left with both of them. I love how Panganiban gives each sister specificity and weight, without demonizing anyone.

From the beginning of the play I was totally sucked into the characters' lives as they fight for basketball, family, and politics. I laughed and cried more than a few times. Highly recommend.
