LA TIMES Critic's Choice - April 2016

Playwright Ruby Rae Spiegel’s “Dry Land,” presented by the Echo Theater Company at the Atwater Village Theatre, confronts the effect of unwanted pregnancy on a tough but terrified teenage girl.

"Alana Dietze's taut and harrowing staging doesn't pull punches. Rose and Kelly-Eiding are precociously strong in their challenging roles. The sheer psychic clout of Spiegel's visceral play should not be underestimated. You may flinch -- but you will be unable to look away." - LA Times
