A highly theatrical, tautly-structured one-act featuring crisp dialogue, a chilling sense of foreboding, and humor that makes you squirm as well as laugh. If you're seeking an absurdist gem with spot-on social commentary, look no further. Brava!

A kaleidoscopic, completely original and wildly inventive ride featuring multiple time-shifts, lots of nifty dialogue and plenty of laughs. Fun on the page, and will undoubtedly be even more fun on the stage. University theaters and adventurous community theaters, please take a look!

An absolutely dazzling work of theater ... smart, funny, romantic and insightful. A sumptuous feast both intellectually and emotionally, it's extremely deserving of widespread production!

A boldly inventive drama, both epic and intimate, about the vagaries of history and the mysteries of family. Moving, thought-provoking, and thrillingly entertaining.

A masterfully-crafted drama featuring wickedly bristling dialogue and escalating emotional fireworks. Both timely (an extremely plausible contemporary narrative) and timeless (with interspersed, highly relevant allusions to classical Greek mythology). Very impactful -- and very gratifying -- on multiple levels. Bravo!

A bold and beautiful play that is both epic and intimate. Multi-layered and thought-provoking, surprising and immensely satisfying, it is very deserving of its many accolades, and will hopefully receive even more widespread production.

A fast-paced, expertly crafted, gut-punch of a play. Thrilling and highly theatrical, with enticing roles for three young actors. Extremely worthy of wide-spread production!

An electrifying drama that somehow manages to combine gritty realism with magical theatricality, and make it all fit together perfectly. Features a collection of characters lovingly depicted in all their messy humanity, including their foibles and flaws, all their hopes and dashed dreams. The dialogue is dazzling throughout, and the strategically-placed monologues consistently hit home with their power and their poetry. Extremely worthy of wide-spread production. Bravo!

A very sly and funny satire about 1) art, 2) education in general, 3) arts education in particular, and 4) every committee you've ever been a member of. Smart premise, brilliantly executed ... bravo!

A boldly original work that brilliantly fuses laugh-out-loud comedy with heart-wrenching pathos. Rich Orloff treats all of his characters with deep compassion and the utmost respect. We're amused by their foibles, but they're rendered with such loving specificity that we never lose sight of their struggles and their humanity. JENNIFER'S BIRTH is a real treat for theater-lovers old, young and every age in-between. Thank you, Rich Orloff!
