Jackie has created something truly incredible (a spooky/hilarious/raw clown show?!!), I can’t stop thinking about it! ... full review

Katherine takes us to a fictional town called Bellingham Bay. But by the end of her performance, I was pretty convinced that this town and these people were real, and I'm mad this show doesn't actually exist. ... full review

This play reminded me of a Nora Ephron movie! A delicate and heartfelt dramedy with hilarious friend characters and a little twist. ... full review

This show is DERANGED in the best possible way. The Family Fries team built a world where anything was possible, you never knew who was walking through that door, who was dead, what Jake was going to do next. I was in from the jump. Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf on steroids. Big big fan.... full review

Watching four different plays based on the same prompt was such a cool experience. Each one was drastically different in terms of tone and subject which I found incredibly inspiring. I thought everything from the scripts to the transitions was executed with precision, and the actors lived in these different worlds fully. Congratulations to the entire team!... full review

Wow wow wow. This musical was so well executed! I'm not a video game person so I wasn't sure I would be able to relate to the story, but this show is about following your dreams and finding your people which anyone can relate to. The songs were so catchy and the dialogue was hilarious, I really think this show has legs, and I sincerely hope someone gives them money to produce it on a larger scale. One of the best nights I've had at the theater in a while. ... full review

A Haunting Revue managed to tell three totally different stories in the style of The Twilight Zone. I loved the tone of the overall piece and I thought the balance of horror and comedy was well executed. ... full review

Unsweet Perdition is a workplace dramedy meets Erin Brockovich meets a Mike Flanagan series. Evan Spreen is a playwright who knows how to build tension and can write monologues that feel like poetry. I loved the way these characters and their stories slowly revealed themselves. Congrats to the whole team!... full review

Suzannah is an absolute powerhouse. Her ability to tell a story that is equal parts chaos, hilarity, vulnerability, and hope is unmatched. I wasn't sure I would be able to connect with a story about motherhood as I am not a mother myself, but this was not an issue at all. This is a story about finding yourself and giving yourself permission to follow your dreams. Literally everyone can relate to something in Suzannah's story. I didn't want it to end!... full review

Girl Blood doesn't shy away from the things we used to whisper about in middle school. This team jumps into discussions of puberty, sexual identity, and changing relationships head first. I thought the way they explored what gets passed down from mother to daughter, sibling to sibling, was executed brilliantly and it made me reflect on my own experiences at that age. Congrats to the whole team!... full review
