“The Virgin, The Witch, and the Wardrobe
, written by Brittany Rostron,  centered around the lives of two half-sisters and was quite engaging and well-paced …I would really like to see this script again in a few months–on its feet this time.”
– Erik J. Pratt, DROPS UNLIMITED Entertainment

“I spent an evening in giggles over a contemporary rendition of the age-old conflict -- god vs. witch…The Virgin, the Witch and the Wardrobe successfully attempts to crack modern-day religious stereotypes in an all-too-familiar battle of sisterhood… Rostron does not spotlight either religion, and it is Dawn, whose inhibitions lead Marie into an emotional outburst directed at her husband, that left the audience quivering. The characters of Jimmy and Sam both inject enough testosterone to keep both sexes happy and emotions elated…This light-hearted journey towards tolerance and acceptance of the things and people we cannot change is a lesson for us all, so keep your eyes open for it in the theatre.” 
– ELH, WritersCafe.com

Shoot the Dog (full production) – Seventh Annual Midtown International Theatre Festival


“Brittany Rostron's Shoot the Dog shows that the author has potential...Rostron subverts stereotypes and makes each of her main characters complex individuals whose relationship to issues of race, patriotism, and family are more nuanced than they initially appear.”
- Dan Bacalzo, Theatermania.com

“[Shoot the Dog] effectively showcases smart political theater without turning polemic.”  
- Josselyn Simpson, Time Out New York
