“Superb acting...”
“Virtuosic acting, Diana Brown’s Elizabeth is perfectly timed, tuned and in sync.”
“Diana Brown, as Red, provides what is arguably the best performance at the FRINGE OF MARIN.”

“ Diana Brown (plays Red) with a touching blend of humor and malice. The play is a sweet reflection on love and loss, featuring two gifted actors.”
““Diana Brown is an IMPROV FORCE!
See her practice what she preaches.
This woman is THE BEST character improv actor in the SF Bay Area.”
— Jill Eickmann, Artistic Director, Leela, Improvisational Theatre Company & Training Center.”
