  • Victor Lesniewski: THE ABUELAS by Stephanie Alison Walker
    “

    A smart, deeply felt reminder of how history reverberates into the generations that follow. I was lucky enough to catch a reading of this piece at ANPF and found it full of rich characters and sharp dialogue. It's rare to see complex historical events handled so well onstage.

  • Victor Lesniewski: The Excavation of Mary Anning by Ian August
    “

    I was grateful to see the presentation of this play at ANPF. It's both funny and deeply felt. A very fruitful dig through Anning's biography. Plus, the dog. Everyone loves the dog.

  • Victor Lesniewski: The Temple by TyLie Shider
    “

    A deft reflection on grieving and grievance. Tylie's is a direct kind of lyricism, both enchanting and evocative.

    Saw this one at South Coast. What a fun and thought-provoking exploration of culture and cultural appropriation. Recommend!

  • Victor Lesniewski: The Luckiest People by Meridith Friedman
    “

    I feel so lucky (maybe even the luckiest?) to have caught this play when it was at Curious. Meridith's deep exploration of character is so incredibly moving. The play left me wishing work like this was getting produced more often in our theaters.

    I had the pleasure of seeing the development workshop presentation of this play at Noor Theatre and found it to be a compelling exploration of spirituality and social stereotyping with a fun supernatural twist. Def recommend!
