I was able to catch a preview of "It's Important to Leave, As Well" with a few friends, one who was familiar with theatre and another that was rather new to it. Despite our differing exposures, we were all captivated by this story that seems to explore the quirks of theatre, some that are quite profound and others that are quite humorous, while simultaneously venturing into the idea of self. It's an exploration of one's worries and past regrets in a manner that each individual can relate to. "The world is a stage," after all, but don't be surprised if you find yourself wondering if this play was written about you (or maybe for you) as you'll definitely find moments that you find yourself truly connected to. The play features strong writi... full review

"You're a good liar. I wish I could lie as well as you." This particular line of dialogue nicely summed up my feelings about Will Play for Food's production of It's Important to Leave, as Well. If that doesn't sound like a compliment, it is, though in the same way the show itself goes about delivering it's message.

It also hits on passivity vs activity in relationships, and the ways in which we're manipulated by both art and human drama. All that done in only an hour, and deftly, at that. If the above sounds like your cup of tea, take my word for it ... full review

THIS IS A MUST SEE FOR ANY LOS ANGELES THEATER ACTOR! This show simultaneously pokes fun at some of the more ridiculous actor/theater stereotypes, while also giving us some beautifully acted dramatic stuff. The acting is top notch, and it looks like we've got a new power duo with director Scott Marden and writer Josh Morrison. This is especially impressive given the nature of the show's process (conceived only after signing up to be a part of Fringe). Color me impressed! In fact... I'm still giggling.... full review
