  • Lenny Hort: Shelley

    There’s so much that I admire about this ambitious and passionate play, particularly how it brings both its famous and not-so-famous characters to life.

  • Lenny Hort: The Absurdity of It All

    I’d understood Theater of the Absurd to be a genre of the increasingly distant past, but Chris Soucy finds new life and substantial laughter in this knockabout absurdist comedy.

    Even attending a reading without sets or sound effects, it felt like I was riding along with these believably quirky characters on their funny and suspenseful ride.

  • Lenny Hort: BUNNIES

    Joanne Hoersch writes with her head, her heart, and her guts in this fascinating, fast-paced, thoroughly believable comedy/drama of unlikely feminist empowerment at a particularly tense moment. The author draws convincingly on her own experience as a Playboy Bunny in the 1970s, yet all five Bunny characters are such distinctive and well-rounded individuals that none is an obvious author surrogate.
