“

Full of humor, pain, and love, Kira crafts a magnificently poetic play about the pitfalls of a system desperately in need of reform, and the womxn who survive and succumb in this system. Never pretentious, always powerful, Kira has struck a beautiful balance and crafted an exceptional play. This play is perfect for late teen actors and for audiences of all ages. Brilliant.

Kyle J. McCloskey: The Resurrectionist by Ryan Stevens

“

I love this play sooo hard. Ryan is simultaneously exploring the depth of the genre they are interrogating while at the same moment infusing their own love and humor to create a resurrection story that never once feels tired. The plays has layers that sometimes literally fall off, but always there to be picked up and further explored. This play is perfect for young womxn and serves as a wonderful exploration into death, grief, love, and the forces that bind them all.
