Glossolalia

Jesenski transports you into her dark and beautiful world with her visceral writing and the help of two incendiary casts. Glossolalia shines its stage lights on questions rarely brought up in theatre. ... full review

Thoroughly impressed with this play from start to finish. Well thought out from the preshow sound design to the set which establish the place even before the play begins. The writing is exceptional and the performances evocative... it is hauntingly striking. The kind of writing that lingers long afterwards and makes you want to go back and watch it again!... full review

Beautiful and subversive. The kicker is that this show ends up being not only about being young and taken advantage of, but is really about the way its female protagonist forms attachment and processes not only the central, traumatic attachment but all of her trauma through her complicated but steadfast faith. Glossolalia is a stunningly written play that resolves in the most satisfying climax I've seen onstage in LA.... full review

GLOSSOLALIA is amazing with incredible writing and set design! It plays perfectly into the recently popular Southern Gothic genre and feels ripe for expansion, either in another format or in a longer stage play. Give us more!!! ... full review

Strongly written and directed, Jesenski takes the audience straight to sacred ground and illustrates the struggle of God's plan versus selfish human desire. I was especially entranced with Lily Rose Wadsworth's portrayal of Evangline. She appeared so young, and naive, and innocent - her desperation made sense, and while she hiccupped a couple lines, she never broke character or lost the emotion driving her actions. Both actors were very strong considering the subject matter, and I was glued to them from the start. ... full review

Excellent, writing, directing, and acting - and freshly unique. The play is provocative stimulating much thought and reflection. I highly recommend seeing it.... full review

Glossolalia is a place where religion, faith, love, and desire meet and come into conflict with one another. Where nature and the law of man reckon. ... full review
