Review: THE REVOLUTIONISTS at Organic Theater
Perhaps wanting revolutionary change is wanting too much. Perhaps we should find peace in mediocrity; solace in small gains. Perhaps documenting and witnessing and retelling the past is easier than changing our present or hoping for a better future.
Review: A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC at BoHo Theatre

We must find a point where we can listen with reason to the other side so that we can engage in fruitful dialogue that genuinely brings forth change in our country.
Review: GIRL FOUND at Idle Muse Theatre Company
Underneath GIRL FOUND’s excessive length and clunky dialogue is a story of merit.

The consistently excellent cast, with urgent and fearless direction from Jason Gerace, spill secrets and relationships and activities that give this short yet intense play all the gravity and dimension of a script twice its length.
