  • Lana Scott Stringer: Data Queen

    This is BITING. So economical, so precise, so complete, SO brilliant. I am blown away at how completely engrossed I was. Emotionally, this felt like a much longer play by virtue of how cemented in the world I became.

  • Lana Scott Stringer: Various Emporia

    This play is full of enthralling bait-and-switches that elevate a nuanced sociocultural conversation just as much as they spark dialogue and intrigue into the narrative arc and inner lives of the characters.

  • Lana Scott Stringer: Quik-Mart

    Through a future lens, this play deals tactfully and richly with current issues of gentrification, refugees, the American dream, and what it takes (or even means) to be a diligent worker in service of the greater good. I love Gershman’s depth of subtext and character relationships.

  • Lana Scott Stringer: Angles in the Snow

    A precise, succinct exercise in irony, with puns to sweeten the deal.

  • Lana Scott Stringer: God of Suffering

    A really interesting premise with a clear and well-paced arc. A story about fate’s fickle sense of retribution and the balance between submission and taking matters into one’s own hands.

  • Lana Scott Stringer: Stanley Todd: The Demon Barber of Desire Street

    A total jaunt!! Super fun and engaging - covers so much satirical and narrative ground so economically. Fans of both will be delighted.

  • Lana Scott Stringer: What a Time to Be Alive (You Say That Every Time)

    This play is such a tightrope walk of power and perception. The playwright is SO skillful in use of nuance and subtext - intentions sing in between the lines. Historical/political fiction with actual emotional teeth - executed perfectly.

  • Lana Scott Stringer: Climbing the Corporate Bladder

    This play pulls off a truly wild premise with staggering precision. Equal parts funny and disgusting, the playwright flawlessly exposes corporate ritual for the cesspool it is with a hilarious and creative satirical lens. The Glengarry Glen Ross of potty humor.

  • Lana Scott Stringer: Accidental Rapture

    This play succeeds where Pfeffinger always does - employing laugh-out-loud dialogue and rich characters as a vessel to discuss profound human issues with levity and without judgment. Well - in this case, with Final Judgment.

  • Lana Scott Stringer: The Girl(s) Next Door

    A concept that absolutely demands complete engrossment of the audience, and a bone-chilling conclusion. A deeply fascinating examination of activism and “activism.”
