  • Abominable (or The Misappropriation of Beverly Onion by Forces Beyond Her Control) by Katie May
    14 Mar. 2017
    “ Loopy and relentlessly unpredictable -- like an amusement park ride except with occasional heartbreak. Audiences and actors alike will welcome the chance to submerge themselves in the smart, peculiar, distinctive and idiosyncratic world built by this play. ”
  • Last Night and the Night Before by Donnetta Lavinia Grays
    14 Mar. 2017
    “ A moving, gripping, and often surprisingly funny play that blends tense stakes, disarming lyricism, and refreshing humor. I came away from the play particularly struck by the characters -- these are five intricately drawn, convincingly flawed, completely recognizable human beings that the audience roots for and that any actor would love to play. ”
  • Lidless by Frances Ya-Chu Cowhig
    5 Aug. 2016
    “ A bracing and unflinching exploration of accountability and forgiveness in a War-on-Terror world. Compellingly flawed characters collide with each other in provocative ways in the big world of this smart play. ”
  • WHITE by James Ijames
    26 Feb. 2016
    “ This play is a sure-handed wonder: unbridled in its hilarity, except when it's being starkly confrontational in its dissection of identity politics and artistic representation. Just unbelievably funny and so, so smart. ”
  • Moon Man Walk by James Ijames
    4 Aug. 2015
    “ An often hilarious, very relatable story of loss and human connection, at once highly theatrical and eminently stageable. The central metaphor is both fanciful and heartbreaking and it lends this often poignant story a buoyant, transporting lift. The play rewards cunning but stripped-down approaches to staging. ”
  • Lucinda's Bed by Mia McCullough
    25 Mar. 2015
    “ Alternately raw and funny, LUCINDA'S BED is a masterfully assembled character study, built around a strong and surprisingly flexible design element and a fanciful but robust facility for metaphor. Eminently stageable, relentlessly involving and theatrically ingenious. ”
  • WAVING GOODBYE by Jamie Pachino
    25 Mar. 2015
    “ At once poetic and theatrical, WAVING GOODBYE is a finely drawn exploration of loss, parenthood, and the capacities (and limitations) of art. ”
  • Montana Lovesong by Tim J. Lord
    25 Mar. 2015
    “ A cunningly constructed play, propelled by a compelling mystery and with a warm and lyrical heart. In performance it pulls you into its world immediately and doesn't let go until the curtain falls ten minutes later. ”
  • (The Mystical Meeting of) Mays & Terese by Emily Ball Cicchini
    18 Mar. 2015
    “ A fanciful, witty and elegantly brainy origin story of two major historical figures -- semi-Stoppardian in its speculative storytelling and thought-provoking in its exploration of faith and integrity. ”
  • WORK by Catherine Castellani
    20 Feb. 2015
    “ Yes, it's a keen satire of corporate culture, but more to the point it's also an opportunity for inspired kinetic lunacy that no ensemble with a talent for physical comedy should even think about trying to resist. ”
