"At Stage West, Murder for Two is skillfully performed by two actors, one playing multiple roles, and both playing piano."

"We thought we’d never chuckle at politics again, and then Ann (The Ann Richards Play) landed at Stage West Theatre –– our sides splintered with laughter."

"In less sure hands, it could be a mimic performance, but Leonard imbues it with herself while exuding the no-nonsense ballsiness of Richards. This woman understood the importance of shaking up the system; wanted to open government to every race, creed, religion, gender and sexual orientation; and even after serving as governor of a large state for one term, said that teaching was the hardest job she’d ever done."

When Dana Schultes first tried to get the rights to do Ann, Holland Taylor's one-woman play about Texas Gov. Ann Richards, Stage West founder Jerry Russell was still alive; Russell's daughter, Wendy Davis, was making national waves as a Texas state senator; and Schultes had no clue that Taylor would take her show to Broadway and be nominated for a Tony Award.
