Featured Quotes

​

"Hungry Women is hardly starved for material, and serves up a playwright ravished with talent and voracious in ambition." – Juan A. Ramirez, Theaterly

​

"A comedy about the perils of patriarchy may be entertaining enough, but actually exploring a world without men, staring down the sci-fi and building a world anew? That’s a hook that sets Maney’s work apart from similar stories of repression and revenge." – Amelia Merrill, NY Theater Guide 

​

"Apart from food, what these women hunger for is freedom from the stifling expectations that have defined their lives. This is the real kickoff to Hungry Women, which takes this premise and runs with it in a great zigzag across time." – Howard Miller, Talkin' Broadway
