So much fun!! Writer/director David Beatty delivers beautiful design and lots of laughs with this heartfelt comedy. Smooth, visually-interesting transitions and well-balanced overlap of dialogue. He uses the whole space to tell the story in a very entertaining way -- a feat well-accomplished by his cast! Amy Cosby is delightfully sweet and grounded as Laura, finding humor in unexpected places. Rio Magdaleno brings you in for a hug with his lovable, relatable Jack. But the standout is Julie Phillips, who inhabits character after character with bold, eccentric wit and vocal acrobatics. She has the audience laughing - onstage and off! A highly entertaining afternoon - see it!... full review

This show really surprised me in the best way. I went to support a friend of a friend and didn’t expect much, but I ended up being completely blown away. One minute I was laughing hard, and the next I was genuinely emotional. The cast was incredible. All three actors brought something special, and their chemistry made every scene hit. Honestly, I couldn’t even pick a favorite moment because there were so many. If you get the chance, go see Grocery Store Romance. It’s absolutely worth it.... full review
