Mitch is such a lovely, smart storyteller with a very interesting story. His love story with his wife is probably the most heartwarming thing I’ve ever witnessed. She was in the audience and I could tell they love each other dearly. It made me realize how a man is supposed to treat a woman! ... full review

QUEER: Drag, Drugs and a Tick Tock Clock.

Growing up in a community that is more or less homophobic, I understood what Jair was talking about and have seen very similar treatment of friends and loved ones. It broke my heart to hear the way he had to suppress his true self for such a long time, even going as far as marrying a woman. It was really fascinating, raw and vulnerable theater. The writing was poetic and ultimately hopeful. ... full review

La Divina: The Last Interview of Maria Callas

Shelley has a gorgeous operatic voice and a command of the stage. She really embodies Maria Callas so beautifully and accurately. And, yet, she's not mimicking and she's really making Callas her own. As a huge Maria Callas fan and a lover of opera, I really commend the care and work that was put into this play. ... full review

This show should be seen by young girls and women. There’s so much I personally identified with. I can go on and on about the kind of shit I deal with in my own community. Tanya does a great job of describing her own struggles. I’ve known women who put on fair and lovely and I only wish I could show them this play!! ... full review

“The WhistleBlower”

By the end of the show you understand the monumental task of a teacher and how they truly are unsung heroes. Sadly, teaching is an under appreciated and yet such an important profession in society. I have a little more respect for my teacher friends and the daily struggles we don't witness! ... full review

The ending and last line of the play are so wonderfully satisfying. I love how he imparts wisdom onto his audience throughout the play. I found myself nodding my head a lot in agreement. Johnny definitely has a lot of wisdom to share in this play. ... full review

Mandy is a comedian so you know there will be elements of humor and you won’t be disappointed because there’s definitely funny aspects. But, it was also, raw, emotional and honest. But most importantly, her story was so relatable. ... full review
