I loved it so much! Having done a production of Lord of the Flies, I was super excited about this show but didn't exactly know what to expect. I was super happy to find it to be a real gem, a witty, funny, light-hearted but still very deep and raw piece. ... full review

No Sabo (formerly “Habla y te Salvas: True Stories of a No Sabo Kid from Queens & his Guayaco Dad”)

myriam ali-ahmad · June 24, 2024 certified reviewer
Impactful. Real. Emotional. Heartbreaking. Funny. This solo-ish show is such a beautiful, raw, genuine experience that Christopher gifts to the audience. It truly is a gift, as the audience gets to witness, in front of their eyes, the relationship between a father and a son unfold and develop. What a raw thing it is to see, live, as they work through their real-life struggles. Christopher is a beautiful storyteller, and has such a deep, real, vulnerable presence on stage. ... full review

If we were a movie

Witty. Emotional. Raw. Genuine. Hilarious. Aline brings forth her childhood trauma to create a funny, emotional and dark comedy movie unfolding before us. Just as the title suggests, she shows us her life the way she sees it as a movie, while referencing some of the greatest filmmakers. This is NOT a trauma dump, which I really liked, but instead, a transformation of trauma to a coping mechanism and a funny raw show!... full review

JUST THE TIP

Witty. Daring. Bold. Hilarious. Jon is a comic genius.

People expect to come and have a laugh, but end up not only laughing, but also leaving with a lot to think about and research. Cleverly woven, Just t... full review

Maeve's Post Colonial 12th House Party

myriam ali-ahmad · June 18, 2024 certified reviewer
Beautifully simple. Powerful. Raw. Witty. Funny. Heartbreaking. Makes you feel like you’re traveling with Maeve in time. Astrology meets politics to reject the horrible status quo of the world we live in. Draws comparisons between today’s world and yesterday’s world, showing us how not much has changed. Colonialism, genocide, imperialism all the same, it’s just the tools that have evolved.... full review

Baby Rock

myriam ali-ahmad · June 17, 2024 certified reviewer
A beautiful piece that makes children enjoy their childhood and takes adults back to their childhood to unleash their inner child and jump into a world of free play, love, imagination and endless possibilities. I truly didn’t think I would be interested in a children’s musical theatre piece but oh boy was I wrong! I just wanted to jump on that stage with the actors and play!... full review
