  • Lo siento, mi español es tremendo mal. by Brandon Urrutia
    25 Aug. 2023
    “ I saw Brandon's beautiful one man show at Edinburgh Fringe and the amount of love they have crafted into this piece is tremendous. Not only is it hilarious and heartbreaking, but so deeply personal and moving. It was a very special experience. ”
  • Superheroes Aren't Allowed to Fuck (a monologue) by SMJ .
    23 Jan. 2023
    “ Hope Johansen slayed this monologue. ”
  • Like Father, Like Salt by Mark Alberto McKnight
    4 Jan. 2023
    “ Mark's debut play is a searing four course meal that takes its dessert and eats it too. This is a delicious treat of post-traumatic stress, privilege dynamics, and absurdism that any actor would be lucky to sink their teeth into. Cannot wait to see this finally on its feet in July 2023. ”
  • STAN, or The Dinosaur Play by Alexandra Rogers
    16 Dec. 2022
    “ I had the pleasure of seeing an early version of Stan when Ali and I were classmates at Marymount Manhattan College. I'm very pleased to see how much it has grown and how Ali's comedic voice has fluorished with such specificity. STAN is a dinosaur, but Stan is a queer legend and anti-capitalist icon. A beautifully written, whimsical and hilarious romp, Stan is a masterclass of contrasting the suppression of education and the mockery of the rich who gatekeep knowledge. Lovely work, Ali. ”
  • yo ho. by SMJ .
    31 Oct. 2022
    “ SMJ's brilliant play about finding pirates finding love is deeply felt, incredibly exciting, and outright belly-busting hilarious. It's stayed with me for some time. Beautiful work. ”
  • How To Destroy An American Girl Doll by Jan Rosenberg
    28 Sep. 2022
    “ This gorgeously written deep dive into a darkly funny outlook on what it means to be a girl and, conversely, what it means to become a woman. Jan is unafraid to broach into the all-encompassing matters that follow this-- addiction, eating disorder culture, body image-- with sensitivity but also a little mischief and mirth that from a young girl would entail. I was thoroughly moved. Produce this play. ”
  • Published! A Shonen-Inspired Musical by Sam Heyman
    14 Sep. 2022
    “ Between plucky young protagonists, clever schematic rhymes, and a beautiful arc on what it means to be a writer and how to put competition second to human connection, especially when you're young, all with joyous harmony, Published both has a lot of fun and a lot of heart. ”

  • juice by Mackenzie Raine Kirkman
    11 Jul. 2022
    “ Kenzie beautifully confines these characters in a disturbing, unsettling, and riveting adventure of claustrophobic spine-chilling self-sacrifice. This is "juicy" and delicious for any actor to sink their teeth into. ”
  • judy, or i think sophomore year is trying to eat me by Emma Mueller
    9 Jul. 2022
    “ This colorful and bright play about adolescence and coming of age is navigated through Judy Blume, evoking a whimsical and empowering sense of nostalgia through conjuring a familiar literary safe haven for young girls learning how to transition into adulthood through examining HOW we come of age. It's messy, it's great fun, and it's deeply moving. ”
