A beguiling and ambitious play! The very talented Ann Marie Healy’s dark futuristic comedy lines up a series of provocative concepts and sends them spinning.

• David Cote, Time Out New York

A first class premiere for a $20 ticket!

• Michael Sommers, NewJerseyNewsRoom.com

A sci-fi flavored drama getting an impressive production by director Ken Rus Schmoll and crisp dialogue from Ann Marie Healy. A cautionary tale about technology that might make you think twice before you buy that Kindle.

• Joe Dziemianowicz, Daily News

Director Ken Rus Schmoll highlights the all-pro cast’s delivery of Healy’s sparkling dialogue beautifully.

Grim parable? Macabre comedy? Naturalist drama? Given that subject matter, it could be any of the above, or a little of all three. Ms. Healy’s quirky comedy Have You Seen Steve Steven, about an oddball family inhabiting a suburban McMansion, was produced by the downtown theater collective 13P.

Directing What Once We Felt is another up-and-comer from the Off and Off Off Broadway world, Ken Rus Schmoll. His work has been seen at places like Performance Space 122 and presented by groups like the Clubbed Thumb company. He directed another notable 13P production, Anne Washburn’s “Internationalist,” which moved to the Vineyard Theater. The cast of What Once We Felt includes Opal Alladin, Mia Barron and Marsha Stephanie Blake.
