********What the critics said about last year’s festival********

“Judging by the chemistry of this galvanized group, along with their professionalism and talent, I predict a rash of breakout stars, as well as a thriving future for the company. . . .Alive Theatre has the potential to be Long Beach’s Steppenwolf (Chicago) or Actors Gang (LA).”

Marchelle Hammack(Beachcomber Newspaper)

“Cal State Long Beach’s theater-department undergrads have formed their own troupe to stage a new-play festival that bubbles with energy and meta-theatrical wit. This bill is like revisiting plays by Pirandello and Christopher Durang; that is, these plays show a vivacious glee…”
