“
A terrifically funny play about how hard it is to date in an age of dating apps, or any age for that matter. And what fun it must be to play either of these roles. Delightful. ”

- Ten Minutes 'til Christmas! by22 Apr. 2020“ Anyone who has ever been forced to watch a Hallmark Christmas movie against their will be laughing out loud throughout this witty send-up. And so will most people who count the days till the 2020 movies are released. ”
- Rising Sophomore by22 Apr. 2020“ This is a quiet play with a powerful message about the need for forgiveness and how hard forgiving can be. It's also a play that wisely steers clear of sentiment and finds and ending that is as tentative and uncertain as it is true. ”
- The Reckoning of J.J. Lafitte by21 Apr. 2020“ A riveting confrontation between a serial killer about to be executed and a reporter with secrets of his own, this play packs a great twist at the end that is as earned as sit is unexpected. ”
- The Vampyr by21 Apr. 2020“ An astonishingly creepy (in the best sense of the word) play in which the tension builds and builds and builds. Two great roles for women.
” - A Paper Forest by17 Apr. 2020“ This is a beautiful play about a beautiful place, and about hope for the planet that springs up in some people like saplings in the North Woods. Lovely. ”
- CRABS(DOT)COM by15 Apr. 2020“ Wonderfully absurdist piece that realizes the full comic potential of pubic lice, and it (they?) have a lot of potential. For anyone who ever had a bad break-up and went off the deep, deep end. ”
- BANSHEE BUNGLE (from the AN IRISH HEART COLLECTION) by15 Apr. 2020“ A quietly chilling story about banshees and the souls -- or one soul at least -- whom they terrorize. A metaphor about fate, luck and our uncertain place in an uncertain world. Perfect for Halloween, or any other time. ”
