“ I was introduced to this lovely play through Jewish Plays Project and then again through Hire Survivors Hollywood. It's a beautiful work that uses gentle, poetic language to show how a child processes trauma and the way myths and legends can help us understand ourselves better. Lang's deft focus on the sisterly/caregiver relationship shows the way close community can help or harm in the process of healing. The childlike POV is so poignant and makes an otherwise difficult story accessible. I felt safe with this play and grateful to the playwright. ”

“ La Sirena is a theatrical, hopeful play that shows the range in which abusers may respond when held accountable for their behavior. The redemptive aspects in the story feel especially rare in theatre at a time when it's desperately needed. Trinidad shows what it looks like to fail and succeed at being an ally and gives us an example of repentance that feels truthful and could serve as a model for people called out for doing harm in our industry (and in any industry). ”

“ This is such a bold, original, and insightful musical that it's hard to believe how real it also feels. I found something personal to love in each of the complex layers of this play – brought forward with a cathartic mix of humor and rage. In an era when creative projects are tediously redeveloped, rebranded, and rebooted, B/S/T presents something so wholly original that it feels rebellious. ”

“ In Every Generation is a haunting, poignant play about collective memory and the way in which we carry our pasts with us. By taking you on a journey through time and language, she explores what it means to be a family, a people, and an individual within a broader community. Ali has built a masterpiece around one dinner, and I can't recommend it enough. ”
