The Pitch Review by Brock Wilbur
"Dri Hernaez’s take of dopey TikTok star flooded with sudden empathy with Clare is
simply a tour-de-force
—not just in line delivery but in every small glance and facial twitch throughout the show’s runtime."

World Premiere production written by Derick Edgren Otero
Directed by Ernie Nolan
Role: Magenta
When a fifteen-year-old girl from Ohio tells you she knows how to order snakes online, what do you do? You sit down and you listen! This uproariously funny, sharp satire follows fourteen-year-old Cora as she takes aim at a prominent music critic, who has savaged her favorite country-turned-pop star’s most devisive album. As the battle between critic and fandom spirals out of control, one question remains: who will win - truth, loyalty, or karma?
