  • Here Comes The Night by Lisa Kenner Grissom

    “ A beautiful play that explores the complexity of friendship, the ache of growing apart from those we love, and the beauty of reconnection, as imperfect as it may be, while at the same time delving into the complex emotions felt by women as they exercise their reproductive rights and evaluate their relationship to the idea of motherhood. Great dialogue and exciting design opportunities! ”

    “ When Joe and Pratt meet the pregnant young woman whose baby they wish to adopt, she has news for them that upends their expectations. And when Joe's sister suddenly arrives on the scene, familial tensions flare and secrets are forced out, putting into question not only the possibility of Joe and Pratt's new family but also the survival of their relationship. A beautiful play about the heartbreak and hope of building a family, about surviving familial trauma, and about the love that makes all of the pain and complexity of intimate relationships worthwhile. ”

    “ A beautiful play about a young woman who's fierce and passionate but who's challenged by the systemic racism and sexism of 1970s America. Haunted by the ghost of her father who was murdered for his Civil Rights activism and by her own stint behind bars, Neon pursues a singing career in a world where undeniable talent and devotion aren't enough to break through societal barriers. Her journey asks us to examine the deep social inequities that continue today and inspires us with her steadfast belief that she has a song to sing, and she's going to sing it. ”

  • Three Anne Franks by Maya Macdonald

    “ What a stunning play. So inherently theatrical and thought-provoking. Funny and poignant. A memorable exploration of how we turn people into symbols for our own use, how we struggle to process trauma and tragedy, how we grapple with our identity and how we identify others. Just love this! ”

    “ This powerful play explores what it is to be a survivor of sexual trauma in a world that doesn't want to listen and how class and privilege protect perpetrators of violence. There's a lot to dig into here for the actor. ”

    “ A beautiful and unexpected exploration of learning how to live with and love someone whose experience of the present and past is changing in painful ways. ”
  • Uncovering by Erin Mallon
    19 Aug. 2020
    “ A fascinating look into the strange world of purity culture and an interesting portrayal of a young woman whose confidence and strength, though rooted in a perspective that seems fundamentally flawed, challenges us to examine the preconceived notions we may have about her belief system. This play is perfectly uncomfortable. ”
