“A provocative premiere from a new theatre we should all be watching.
“One of the best pieces to grace LA’s theatre scene this season…In their premiere production, aided by a few string lights and a smattering of tie-dye shirts, Baby Teeth has posed these questions more effectively than you are apt to see from theatres with ten times their resources this season. Get on the waitlist for the run if you can. You will be riveted, captivated, and ultimately astonished by the simple theatrical magic being spun around the campfire.”
“Exceptional show! Meaningful, modern theatre.
A strikingly human and insightful piece that speaks on the human condition, hard truths, and a way forward. If you have a chance to see this very special production, I would take it.”
“One of the most riveting and original pieces of theatre I have ever seen
Handily one of the best new plays to come down the pike in years…I simply can’t stop thinking about it.”
“If I tried to summarize the unfolding events of the play, it would sound incredibly silly. But when artfully unfurled and imperceptibly directed by Emily Moler (I love seeing shows where any manipulations by the director feel so informed by the piece that they are easy to miss), there is nothing silly about any of it.”
“The cast of this was exceptional…An ensemble that brings the laughs and the feels.” - LA Theatre Bites
