    A moving, epic adventure, astutely relevant to the world we're living in, this is a wonderful, wonderful play!

    A beautiful, heart wrenching play that explores humanity and the aching need for human connection. Sprinkled with moments or humor and containing a lot of heart, AGNES is an absolutely wonderful play.

    I think about this play at least once a week - it's a powerful, theatrical play about race and the gray, gray area between what is right and what is wrong.

    A play that's as fluid as memory itself, it dips in and out of moments that intersect and connect beautifully. I love this play.

    One of the most effective plays I've ever read about war and humanity, about what it does to the people who live through it and how they continue to live with it. This is a beautiful piece.

    This play masterfully crafted, living between the lines of folktales, theatre and horror that culminates in a powerful moment that continues to haunt me in the best way possible.

    It's easy to see why this play won Best Play in the Downtown Urban Arts Festival - as relevant as it is ambitious, Nelson is able to bring a modern day lens to a historical event that reverberates now more than ever. It is clear that Nelson is a voice to listen to in theatre and I hope this play will find a longer run in the very near future.

    A play about both grief in death as well as grief in life, Hannah has populated this surprising play with nuanced characters and an extremely interesting paralleled storyline. Her imagination is endless.
  • Seph

    A deeply powerful and incredibly poignant play that sifts between a modern coming of age story and an epic tale of gods. Imaginative and relevant, Seph is a play I can't wait to see produced.
