“Proud Marys stood out to the Festival Committee for its unapologetic humor and the way it uplifts Filipino-American stories. The musical’s lively score and fearless narrative shine a light on an often-overlooked community, creating an experience that’s both empowering and entertaining.”

Proud Marys excerpts from APAFT (Asian Pacific American Friends of the Theater) Emerging Playwright Showcase
"This show offers knowing, touching, and funny glimpses into the dynamics of a Filipino-American family...the dynamics between the characters make for outstandingly entertaining situation comedy."
"This proposed show could have the same sort of popularity as Kim’s Convenience."
"The pilot is very funny, but the issues are also serious. This is a show that is universally human and unceasingly humorous...has the potential to delight and dismay a wide audience. This is a series with great potential. I hope it gets made. I am looking forward to watching it!"
