The people have spoken! “Stick Fly” is a hit!

"PICK OF THE WEEK! Diamond's play combines complex characters, provocative situations, and literate, funny dialog in this delicious comedy of contemporary manners. Director Shirley Jo Finney reveals a sharp eye for social nuance, and melds her dream cast into a brilliantly seamless ensemble. They are all terrific."
- Neal Weaver, LA Weekly

"CRITIC'S CHOICE! Shirley Jo Finney’s staging bristles with verisimilitude in every particular. Finney has put together the optimum cast and elicited superb performances. The ensemble crackles with intelligence and humor and rage, and we are the privileged observers of their truthfulness."
- F. Kathleen Foley, Los Angeles Times

"HUGELY ENTERTAINING! A play of ideas [and] finally, a love story. Diamond has a way with character, and Finney's cast is, to a person, superb... the talented Diamond has given us much to chew on and a hugely entertaining evening to boot."
- Evan Henerson, Curtainup.com

"A FIRST RATE CAST and gifted design team... thought-provoking and impressively polished"
- Les Spindle, Back Stage

"EXCELLENT! One of the best productions of the year. It’s a roller coaster ride from start to finish, but well worth the trip."
- Darlene Donloe, L.A. Watts Times

"A POWERFUL PRODUCTION. Lydia R. Diamond [is] an important new voice in the theatre... The ensemble cast couldn’t be better... See it!"
- Robert Machray, Blog Critics.com

"WOW! An absolutely splendid production rivaling the best of Broadway... not a false note in multilayered performances by every one of the terrific cast. 'Stick Fly' is a winner all around."
- Steven Stanley, StageSceneLA

"VITALLY INTERESTING. Diamond has a feel for language and an excellent cast to utilize it."
