Performance Reviews

Hyperallergic on Line

….the play is structured as a dinner party at which the audience members are guests. The central character is the terminally ill materfamilias Vanessa (played with perfect pitch by Kathryn Rossetter), who has invited us over for what seems to be her last party. Before we arrived, we were asked to submit an online questionnaire regarding things like long-standing friendships, childhood memories, and recent vacations. At the start of the show, we walked in the door to find Vanessa greeting us as if we were old friends, and throughout the evening our answers to the questionnaire were seamlessly worked into the party conversation…..

Theatre is Easy
