In a very impressive piece of writing, Vince Tula takes us on a journey through a world of oppression and anxiety that, rather closely in many ways, resembles the culture currently surrounding us. Imaginative and innovative, Pit of Hope charts a unique course in storytelling that just hit every beat for me. The characters are all cogs in the machine that are revealed on multiple levels, as every character fits the dysfunctional society from one angle or another; and at some point every character,... full review

Three Eulogies will tug your heartstrings every which way. The actors all captivate the emotional turbulence of the subject matter with a deft and delighting skill. The direction and writing are excellent and make for a wonderful show.... full review

In classic Mike Hadge fashion, this hilarious and instructive send-up doesn't just ridicule, but it also tosses a lifeline to anyone who has, perhaps unknowingly, slipped into cartoonish cynicism, living in a world of self-important assumptions, regarding many around them that they haven't taken the time to get to know. This show tackles it all and guides the characters to eventually finding their peace. ... full review

Ritual Music to Cure a Lover is a powerful and emotionally resonant theatrical work that blends myth, poetry, ritual, and family drama to explore the conflict between tradition and personal freedom. Through its story of a son struggling against inherited expectations, the play examines themes of love, identity, generational trauma, and cultural change within the context of contemporary Iran.... full review

Unsurprisingly, James Byous, along with the entire cast and band, blew the doors off and melted faces in this unique, soul-searching, gut-wrenching, and preeminent story told in just the right way. I was so impressed with James' songwriting and Stein Malvey's arrangements. Everyone in the cast has their moment. ... full review

I can't stop raving about this show. An original concept and I am so glad I got to see all that imagination on stage. It was perfectly entertaining. My son got me a ticket and I saw the last performance. He wasn't able to attend because of a commitment. I thank him for telling me I needed to go.... full review

A well made drama with strong writing and acting. The three characters in this play are brought to life with incredible acting. The play is almost dream like in the sense that we seamlessly drift in and out of different timelines. The play poses the question "What is a legacy and how should people be remembered?"... full review

For lovers of cabaret and Broadway musicals, Kelly Krauter’s “Rosie’s Turn” stands in a light where few can follow. Teetering on a pinnacle between brilliant and silly, this show about a Broadway wanna-be and a tap-dancing subway rat that steals her thunder is masterfully crafted and deliciously danced and sung by Krauter, who is not only a musical revelation all her own, but also bears an amazing resemblance to Liza Minnelli. Loaded with sight gags and Broadway/show tune Easter eggs, “Rosie’s Tu... full review

This show honors the movie and adds the most entertaining elements. I have seen the movie over 5 times and have it on DVD and I was blown away by the production, the actors and the writing. KUDOS. 10/10. I am coming back to see it and bringing friends. ... full review

My overall impression is that the lead, Marisa, truly showcases her range as a multi-hyphenate performer. The show included so much more than I expected: singing, magic, improv, clowning, and genuine dramatic vulnerability. I was also impressed by Marisa's storytelling and writing. The piece feels imaginative and emotionally engaging. I could easily see it finding an audience at the Edinburgh Fringe or The Elysian's Spaghetti Festival in Los Angeles!... full review

The show was a lovely surprise. I did not know what to expect going in, but I know the director as very creative and honest person, so I knew the audience would be in good hands. It was very funny, well paced and the only thing that outweighed it's anxiety was it's heart. I highly recommend.... full review

Visually stunning, tightly rehearsed, silly, creepy, delightful clowning. This production is just SO whole-ass: the soundtrack is incredible, the set design was outrageously polished, the lighting was perfect, the costumes and frickin PUPPETRY. Aye aye aye. And I mean, duh, the performances. Stunning. Comparisons to the 3 Stooges are well-made. Every clown in LA should be required to come see this show so they know where the bar is.... full review
