Dawn Branch (she/her)

Verona streets waste no time getting to the action and even knowing the inevitable tragic ending, you still watch these two hoping that somehow this time they just might figure out how to make it work. Colleen's trimmed down "Romeo & Juliet" delivers this well-known story with plenty of drama, action, and as always love. If like me you're always looking for a chance to see this play, or even if you aren't, you don't want to miss this classic favorite at the McCadden this Fringe season! ... full review

What a delightful adaptation of this Shakespearean comedy. Colleen's minimalist approach doesn't lose the heart found in the Forest of Arden. Eileen Arce as Rosalind was a true joy to watch on stage - do yourself a favor and don't miss her this Fringe season. (Though with two rotating casts, you can't go wrong with any show you catch!) If you need a smile and a fresh look at a well-known favorite, get to the McCadden for "As You Like It" in 60 Minutes.... full review

An absolutely beautiful celebration of life and legacy set in a peaceful cemetery.... full review

I beautiful exploration of not just sexuality, but of overcoming the trauma that holds us back so we can finally find and be who we are. Jackie radiates such joy, it's contagious - even the shyest of audiences will be ready to join in before the show ends.... full review

A brilliantly entertaining play from Becca Lustgarten. The writing and acting are superb. You don't want to miss this one. ... full review

This is a unique concept and a really lovely way to showcase not just the artistic talent of the members of the Complaints Department, but of other Fringe shows as well. Bravo Peyton, Zander and everyone in the Complaints Department. I look forward to seeing this return!... full review

What a powerful story from Starr Shapiro. Trying to get a handle on one's own mental struggles is exhausting enough. Adding in grief (a huge trigger for those struggles) and family (yup, that adds another trigger) make this a compelling view of the lies our brain tells us and how hard it is to quiet them. ... full review

An absurd tackling of a very serious topic. The levity that was brought to the stage created a safe spot to explore a difficult subject. And that balance was both needed and done extremely well. ... full review
