“…an inventive play that champions women’s rights, women’s ingenuity, and the difficult choices they encounter and as such it is worth viewing. It will be a cause for celebration as well as a source for discussion.” -National Herald

“The play is a moving testament to women’s resilience, both in the past and present and highlights the importance of speaking up to violence instead of staying silent.” -Daily Titan

OWL PEOPLE

2023 Semi-finalist in the Dramatists Guild Fellowship

A Snowy white owl arrives in a Southern California suburb during the Christmas Season. Some thing it’s the Messiah, some are ecstatic to witness the mystical bird out of its element and some want it to leave. Why did this beautiful creature choose them, a community divided about everything.
