Spike Heels
“ A very talented quartet breathes compellingly organic life into a script which sometimes paints nuanced details with very broad strokes.”
[ Includes review of Spike Heels ]
— Russ Bickerstaff / The Small Stage
“The production offers a realistic take on ego, infidelity and the roles of sex and power in and out of the workplace. It is complicated, and it gets intense.”
[ Includes review of Spike Heels ]
— Blaine Schultz / Shepherd Express
“It is a powerful play about men and women and how they wield their power over each other, forever an interesting and often contentious issue.”
[ Includes review of Spike Heels ]

Directed by JJ Gatesman
Pygmalion goes awry in this contemporary comedy of manners, which explores sexual harassment, misplaced amour, and the possibility of a four-sided love triangle. The combatants are a sexy, volatile young woman and three Back Bay types: a writer, a lawyer, and a fiancée in sensible shoes. The setting is Boston, the ending is happy, and laughter abounds.
“Stinging one liners.” N.Y. Daily News.
“Places a superior wryly pleasing … fashionable feminist spin on sexual shenanigans. Neatly written with smart funny lines.” N.Y. Post.
“Full of tart wit, feminist insight and quirky detours of plot.” Time.
