As topical as it is personal, Star Stone’s "#Metoo" is more than just a hashtag and a movement. It’s also a journey. Full review: http://dinnerpartyblog.com/post/174879816187/women-on-the-fringe-a-round-up-of-female-driven... full review

Through powerful, visceral body movements and dialogue (performed mesmerizingly by Brooke Ivory, Mariya Gordon, and Mary Polhemus) accompanied by a live soundtrack (NAACP Award-winning actor John “Faahz” Merchant impressively beatboxes throughout the show’s duration and Delante McCreary draws us in with his silky voice), "I Came to Make Noise" demands you to listen and encourages you to speak up with your story.

The storyline of "Crunch" feels derivative of pop culture stories about buddies who care for a monster-like thing, but it’s nevertheless original with its cast of all women characters who are figuring out their sexualities in the process.

My Own Private River Phoenix is painfully poignant at times and yet it’s an altogether charming and irresistible portrait of a young immigrant looking to find her place in a foreign land. Yoshihara shines brightest at her most tender and vulnerable moments, but don’t let that fool you into thinking this show is a drama. Yoshihara cuts tension in the play with relatable quips about growing up and loving your own damn self. Full review: http://dinnerpartyblog.com/post/174879816187/women-on-the-f... full review

This production was recommended to me by some mutual connections. I didn't know what exactly I was stepping into, but boy was it a wild, bold, and exhilarating ride!... full review

A charming dark comedy about relationships, mental health, and friendships. Witty but heartfelt. If you've found yourself as confused as Tom Hansen about love in (500) Days of Summer, you'll find solace in this play. ... full review

Audacious, outrageous, enlightening. This was exactly how I wanted to spend my Wednesday night!... full review

Such a fun show! Not only are the performances captivativating to watch on stage--showing a range of emotions and personalities--the stories are also heartfelt and relatable. This is a show you'll want to see with your best friend in the whole wide world... or that friend you wish was something more.... full review

Truthfully, I had no idea what I would be walking into when I first entered the theatre. And boy, was I in for an exciting surprise! Cherise is able to walk that fine line between laugh-out-loud comedy and deep sentiment. She is bold in her words. She is audacious in her actions. WORTH EVERY DROP OF LISTERINE (and I wasn't wearing a poncho).... full review
