PRAISE FOR THE BOYS ARE ANGRY

One of “7 Shows to See at FringeNYC 2015” - Zachary Stewart, THEATERMANIA

The Boys Are Angry is a great example of what a Fringe Show is: daring, full of ideas, great talent, and the venue to make the magic happen.” - Nelson Diaz-Marcano, Manhattan with a Twist

“From the moment an invective-fueled, misogynistic spew presumably tapped out on a blogger’s keyboard is posted to the audience in the form of a frontal, ferociously lit soliloquy, The Boys Are Angry begins its fearless transition from social network screed into a morality play mobilized by the conventions of live theater...Under Sam Plattus’ direction, the theater provides an intimately affecting laboratory for wry epidemiological research.” - Deborah Natsios, Cryptome

Bold, fresh approach” - Melanie N. Lee, nytheater now

“Eddy’s ear for the puerile humor of straight twenty-something guys feels spot-on, and Johnson and Houran expertly capture the complex nuances of their co-dependent relationship...The Boys Are Angry is an intelligent exploration of young white masculinity, all the more arresting having been written by a woman.” - Dan Dinero, Theatre is Easy
