REVIEWS

  • “...well directed, with changes of rhythm and mood and movement beautifully constructed and choreographed, and the acting intense and convincing.”

    Swiss Journal

  • “...deft strokes of staging...sharp images...solid level of ensemble performances.”

    East Bay Express

  • Gemma excelled at shaping the arc of the play while working creatively to explore the moment-to-moment dynamics between the characters. Building trust and genuine connection between actors is a strength of hers.
