Super fun night of theater. Actors were having a great time and we loved it. Come see this tight 45 minutes of theater and you will be happy that you did!!... full review

Well done! So much fun! Loved this show! The writing was crisp, imaginative and funny. So well acted — the actresses brought a whole world to life with basically a square of astroturf. I’m not even a mom and I was along for the fun-filled ride. Do yourself a favor and GO!... full review

Pinata is a joyful celebration of motherhood, cheap wine, social pressure, the intense social pressure to look good and the one-upmanship of childrens’ birthday parties. The cast play well together with a lovely balance ensemble acting, presenting this kind of ‘Breakfast Club’ for mothers who have just had enough! Pinata is the perfect night out if you’re looking for a night away from the kids, and even better enjoyed if you play the ‘Pinata Drinking Game’ (I just made it up), where you take a swig every time one of the characters has a drink. Cheers!... full review

This piece was delightful from start to finish. The performances were wonderful, especially Tracy Elliot as scaredy-cat mom and Tracey Rooney in a rare turn as the tough, feisty mom. The production values were spot on, embracing the concept of the Fringe using minimal set pieces. ... full review

What a great cast. Very tight and very funny. Very clear characters and very well defined. I gotta quit saying very. Focus is ever shifting on to a different character and they all work quite well together with no upstaging and beautiful connections. The clown seems to be a plot device and then we end up having a wonderful human character a beautifully understated performance which is wonderful behind that clown makeup. I don't have kids and don't know that world but like all good plays it doesn't matter. It gives us a look into that world.... full review
