“’Criminal Hearts’ is a dark, quirky, fast-paced comedy about two funny women from two different worlds who fashion a unique friendship. This provocative play has been described as a combination of ‘Thelma and Louise’ and ‘The Grifters,’” said Dr. Jay Raphael.
“’Visiting Mr. Green’ has been produced over 200 items and translated into 22 languages. The comedy is a touching and compelling story of friendship, family, and forgiveness,” Raphael said.
