  • Eryn Elyse McVay: Megan and the Bear Go Camping (To Solve Their Problems) by Zoe Jovanovich
    “

    Deeply personal and moving, Megan and The Bear is an unapologetic look at mental health; this is a story that has a need to be told. Jovanovich uses playful imagery to help us feel safe before she punches us in the gut. This is what theatre is at its' finest.

  • Eryn Elyse McVay: Diamonds and Toads by Jessi Pitts
    “

    The first scene of D&T grabbed me by the neck and didn't let me go for the next hour and a half. A gritty look at a families' dysfunction and desperation, Pitts' adaptation of Les Fees is exciting, poignant, and bitingly funny. The characters of Fanny and the Mother will be coveted by actors for years to come.
