  • Chelsea Frandsen: ALL THERE IS TO SEE (fka "Seeing Eye") by Nick Malakhow

    This play is beautiful and thought-provoking. Nick Malakhow has an amazing and almost uncanny ability to draw his audience in through poignant and highly sensory dialogue that creates beautiful mind pictures. I fell in love with Robbie and Jason's relationship and Jason and Jordan's relationship was just as authentic (sounds like some of the interactions I've have with my siblings). I wish there were more plays out there like this one.

    This was so sweet! Corey and Jake were absolutely adorable and I love the way the two of them figure out if what they feel is real. Loved this wonderful short play!

    This was such a delightful, bitingly funny romp! Every twist landed beautifully and the ending was incredibly satisfying. I love these quirky crazies! Well done, Everett!

  • Chelsea Frandsen: Out of the Scorpion's Nest (formerly Queen of Sad Mischance) by John Minigan

    I will never get tired of John Minigian. His characters are always so richly drawn and his way with words is powerful and always packs a punch. This play which at first glance seems simple is so complex and achingly beautiful. I highly recommend this play!

    Awwwwww! This play is amazing! Every character is so human and while the dialogue is simple yet it's so full of juicy context. Also, I really like Boyd. I want to adopt Boyd :)

    This play is powerful. Gut-wrenching. Thought provoking. Lead by powerhouses of female characters any actress would love to play. Alisha Espinosa takes a very real problem in contemporary society and spins a tale that is unforgettable!

  • Chelsea Frandsen: The Inexplicable Chaos Factor of Mia Gregory by Emily Hageman

    I love Emily Hageman. So much! This one act is beautiful and such an important look at Mental Health. I felt for both Mia and Liv--no, that's a lie, I *related* to Mia and Liv. These girls are experiencing things that we all do and it's so raw and so real that it needs to be seen on the stage. Like now.
