"The story [was] rich with piercing insight into the frailties of humanity while simultaneously reflecting love, respect, and hope for our species." "Get thee to Fremont's West of Lenin Theater before the show closes ... ! The acting is superb, the minimal staging is clever, and the play raises interesting questions." "I left the theater so happy yesterday, my heart was full. What a magnificent play!" "The play, the actors - wonderful. There were four of us, not used to the particular format for a play, that were stunned with the power and beauty of it. Thank you, thank you!" "We discussed [the play] all the way home last night as your words had a lasting effect … It reminded both of us of something you would experience at the Huntington Theatre in Boston. I'm a huge fan!!!" "A beautiful story told with great humor and empathy." "WONDERFUL ... the performances were pants droppingly good. . . . a delight, a triumph, and truly original." "Extremely interesting storytelling and really wonderful acting. The female take on The Odyssey was awesome! Hats off for such a courageous piece of work!" "Spectacular. Truly. ... I was crying from Act I, Scene 1. Kudos to everyone involved." Super thought-provoking play ... I am still thinking about it today. And my friend could not stop raving ... We are glad we came." "I wanted to thank you all for such a powerful and brave night of theater. I won't be able to stop thinking about tonight's show for quite a spell. Beautiful work you all."

"Go and see this show! It's awesome and unexpectable ... yeah ... new word ... deal with it." "A beautiful play that I'm still thinking about days later ... simply stunning ... I have so much love for Parley and the work that they do." "A sly and beautifully wrought love triangle that kept my head spinning long into the night, even in my dreams. The acting, writing, directing and audience engagement were so welcome in these times of seeing theater that’s mainly 'good for you.'" "There was tremendous love and energy from that audience. Quite extraordinary for a staged reading, and really fun for the performers." "We enjoyed your play SO much last night. I replayed it in my head and your play 'stuck' with me like a good book or movie. Subtle plot twists, the exploration of love and trust... made me really THINK and the more I thought about it, the more I LOVE this play." "I just wanted to tell you all how much I loved both the engaging play and the emotionally charged acting. You've all got a great thing going with Parley!" "[The play was] an existential truth-telling gem. Thank you for the deeply poignant writing and the brilliant performances." "Your play was excellent. You really have something there that a lot of people will identify with. Thank you for telling the story." "Your ability to skewer religion while remaining kind and respectful to the humans involved is an astounding skill. I look forward to many more engaging plays." "The actors were great! The production was smart, and told the story well. Most of all, I wanted to say how impressive it is that you've accomplished 30 world premieres! That really is a contribution to the Seattle theater scene. I look forward to future productions." "I could, honest-to-God, see that play making its way out into theaters around the country." |
