Bathroom Diaries

alon dina · June 08, 2025 certified reviewer
I came in not knowing much and appreciate the honesty and vulnerability Christina shares on stage with us; powerful, personal, and an important story to be told. The show follows an only child's struggles with a bladder condition that later manifests into an eating disorder and alcoholism. Christina sprinkles humor into even her darkest moments, keeping the audience engaged through the different characters she plays. ... full review

This is Water

alon dina · June 08, 2025 certified reviewer
This Is Water is award winning musician Rain Perry's retelling of her history growing up in California as a white woman and being aware of the effects of segregation laws. The plot follows as she sits down to write her album and shuffles through her own lineage, creating and performing songs that convey her feelings to match the timeline. This show is highly relevant for our time, with racial injustices being enforced as we speak, and Perry's experience will resonate with a large audience. This I... full review

Romeo and Juliet in 60 Minutes

alon dina · June 08, 2025 certified reviewer
Very enjoyable experience with fantastic performances and good direction! I came into this wanting to dislike it, thinking Shakespeare deserves months if not years of study, yet what Colleen has crafted should be shared with more performers and lovers of theater. ... full review

Near Sex For Work

alon dina · June 08, 2025 certified reviewer
Really fun and insightful show! Daniel Shar reviews his career as a comedian turned porn extra. You might come see it for the sex part, but this show is about the need for human connection. Daniel Shar takes us on the wild ride of his career and shows us (yes) the highs and lows, in his journey. This is a well-structured one-man show that separates itself from stand-up comedy. I definitely recommend this show for the entertainment, the curiosity, and the laughs.... full review

Venus in Fur

alon dina · June 07, 2025 certified reviewer
One of the best shows I have seen all year! The play is about a casting session that intertwines with the personal lives of these characters, juggling with themes of gender, power, and desire. The play runs 90 minutes and not a moment is dull. The play is full of dynamic chemistry, boundaries being blurred, and control being pulled in many directions. Phenomenal performances, a show that looks ready for a professional run.... full review

Amazing Sex Life of Rabbits

Smart, hilarious, and surprisingly biting comedy that plays like a Christopher Durang fever dream. A simple concept at the start, but a play that examines class, relationships, and the needs between partners.... full review

And What of the Children...

alon dina · June 07, 2025 certified reviewer
A very intense, emotional-driven show. Themes that might be deeply disturbing but important to bring to the stage. Haunting, sinister, and uncomfortable at times, but you become interested in these character's lives. Twists that will have audiences gripping their seats!... full review

The Club of Broken Fasts

alon dina · June 07, 2025 certified reviewer
What a delightful show and terrific ensemble piece! Come see this show for a fun time. I don't know much about this theater company but it feels like my high school self's dream come true, retellings of modern classics in a Shakespearean style (hence the About the Project written in iambic pentameter).Broken Fasts = Breakfast, The Breakfast Club! It's an interesting concept. ... full review

Soft Animal

The history of human evolution in about 45 minutes: exceedingly hilarious, phenomenal, one of the best shows I will see this season! George Aivaliotis communicates through clown work and physical comedy, creating an immersive, psychedelic, variety one-man show. ... full review
