"The chemistry between Schultes and Buchanan is always honest"
‘Sex With Strangers’ is no one-night stand
by Mark Lowry | Fort Worth Star-Telegram
"Ann Richards is the Lone Star in Stage West’s ‘Ann’"
“I’m enlightened and pleased and proud of the fact that she’s still a legacy. She still has an impact on our society. She still touches people,” Leonard said.
Linda Leonard: “I am delighted to be doing it again”
Ann Richards had "a penchant for the perfect zinger with a Texas twang. "
Sharp Critic: "Pitch perfect, brilliant Aliens at Stage West"
"With the pitch-perfect, visionary direction of Dana Schultes, Joey Folsom, Parker Gray and Jake Buchanan give us performances that are strong, deeply touching and crisp. Folsom has just the right balance of insouciance and gravitas, Buchanan brings an introspective lightness, and Parker the insecurity and fear of exclusion all guys have felt. "
"The Aliens is about the real ways in which we connect with one another, and what happens when those connections are frustrating, or even begin to disappear."

The moment glows—not just on the stage, but in the audience.
Sharp Critic: "Stage West’s Deer a brilliant, bizarre, inspired ride"
"Deer channels sinister wisdom, the kind of frustration that fuels giddy, mind-bending humor. "
