The Absolute Brightness of Leonard Pelkey
Directed by Patrick Kibbie
March 1, 2, 3 and 8, 9, 10
“...leaves you beaming with joy...a superlative solo show...Mr Lecesne is a writer of wit and keen observational skills, who here unfolds a dark tale that shimmers with the needling suspense you associate with the best police procedurals...Perhaps most remarkably, he's the rare artist who doesn't shy away from sentimentality...you may find yourself choking back a tear or two…”

“The conflicting forces of defeat and determination, surrender and fragile strength … fully acknowledge the tricky complexities of Emma’s path. It’s a remarkable performance inhabited with tremendous vitality, allowing us to share in the intense highs, the devastating lows and the terrifying challenges of moving forward.”
Seminar
Directed by Sterling Shane Allen
October 6, 7, 8 and 13, 14, 15
“The creation of art is notoriously difficult to depict on stage (as in film), so leeway must be allowed those who would evoke this slow and tortuous process in a brief, digestible narrative. But “Seminar” seems to be almost nothing but shortcuts, and that includes the ways it defines and manipulates its characters. Full of efficiently mapped reversals and revelations, the play feels as if it were written according to some literary equivalent of a mileage-saving GPS device.”
