ABOUT GOD'S EAR
In this beautiful and bizarre new play, a family is both torn apart and drawn together by the accidental death of a child. They are aided in their search for connection and solace by flights of fantasy involving a singing Tooth Fairy and a life-size G.I. Joe. In the space between what is said and what is unspeakable they find a heartrending collage of truth and cliché.

Playwright Jenny Schwartz is well-known for pushing the envelope with theater that blends the commonplace and the surreal. God's Ear is exactly that sort of challenging escape.

As the New York Times declared, "words gush forth in torrents, spewing up like geysers on a ghostly plain" in this "arrestingly odd ... ode to love, loss and the routines of life."

The Other Paper
A combination of drama, dance, movement, projected images and live video make this the most multimedia show the adventurous troupe has staged yet. But its main strength is its cast, which brings to life the numerous unnamed characters who either know or think they know Anne ... It takes acting chops to bring out the underlying emotions in these anonymous characters’ lines, and they’re provided by Emily Bach, Meghan Durham, Susie Gerald, Ellen Knolls, Joyce Leahy, Krista Lively Stauffer, Shanelle Marie and Dayle Towarnicky


Columbus Alive
Director Matt Slaybaugh, the eight members of his all-female cast and their collaborators have shaped an absorbing evening of theater out of a text that gives absolutely no clue of setting, action, number of performers, who says what or any of the things we usually expect a play to present ... The cast is uniformly excellent at leading the audience through Crimp's maze. As he puts it, what they do is "more exacting than acting."
