  • Only Human by Jennifer O'Grady
    2 Jun. 2020
    “ This is the kind of monologue that an actor can really sink his teeth into. When this piece isn't ripping your heart out, it is funny in a very human way, the story of a couple of priests just having a fun conversation. This makes the tragedy of the piece all the more poignant. ”
  • The Man Who Shot Hitler by Steven Christopher McKnight
    2 Jun. 2020
    “ McKnight truly understands what makes theatre great: collaboration and interpretation. In this very funny dark comedy, he does just that...allowing for directors to essentially craft their own ending. This is a play I want to perform badly. ”
  • Prelude by Steven Christopher McKnight
    30 May. 2020
    “ McKnight captures a moment in history with staggering modernity. This piece has the maturity to not explore violent revolution as an absolute good or an absolute bad, but to look at the different types of revolutionaries and their own personal motives. A play that not only needs to be read immediately, but performed as often as possible. ”
  • Twenty Shillings and a Dog: A Contemporary Farce In One Continuous and Insufferable Act by Steven Christopher McKnight
    30 May. 2020
    “ A clever farce that mixes Stoppard's dry wit with the pure kinetic energy of Michael Frayne. Every character gets their moment to shine, making this a true ensemble comedy. McKnight also does something unexpected with the material, delivering a poignant ending that takes an audience filled with joy and laughter and leaves them in a melancholic state. A great piece of theatre. ”
