ANONYMOUS certified reviewer June 03, 2018
Phenomenal show. The writing was so natural it felt like you were really just a fly in the wall of the characters' apartment. Deals with complex issues without being heavy-handed and while adding honest humor for some levity. The performances were wonderful and the direction tight. This is a quick show that will make you think, laugh, and even might jerk a few tears out of those dusty old ducts. I can't say enough good things about it.... full review

A layered and well acted story that looks at ugly truths of today's entertainment in terms of whitewashing. Sharp and to the point it's a theatrical conversation that will generate ones between the audience afterwards.... full review

It was a very relevant and topical subject matter surrounding today's film industry. I think the actresses did a great job as two good friends who get into an argument.... full review

SKIN JOBS is a searingly honest look behind the curtain into the darker corners of an all-to-often glamorized and white-washed industry. ... full review

JULIA NEWTON certified reviewer June 14, 2018
I loved this show! It's an intriguing, thought-provoking play, and yet highly entertaining. It shed light on a serious issue in the movie industry that very few people know about. It was riveting, finely acted by the two actresses, and a deft script by Jim Vejvoda. The turn was so smooth you hardly felt it -- until you did. Just an all-around great show. ... full review
