​What the judges are saying about Advice for Astronauts...

Thank you so much for bringing this play today, what a beautiful meditation on flight and wonder!

Thank you all for showing us this funny, but heartfelt play. Its theme kept reminding me that two, seemingly dissimilar subjects such as science and theatre, actually have a strong thematic connection: they ultimately seek the truth. 

 

In this production, I really enjoyed the group choreography moments. They were clean and felt organic, almost rising out of the stage floor. The flashlight chorus was wonderful too, a strong artistic choice and visual.
