And the reason the characters end up speaking for others is because they are speaking for themselves.” Hugh Simpson, All Edinburgh Theatre Read the entire review here https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac50410fcf7fdecf816931b/cf86aa5c-278c-49e5-a02c-a31fcda37910/DSCF1720.JPG Press - ***** “…Schaffer’s writing is rich and lyrical. The confessional monologues from the characters border on spoken word poetry. The dialogue is playful, biting, and dances into the ear. Schaffer’s script is transportative and enchanting, as well as being deeply intelligent and unafraid of shying away from life’s harsh realities. “ C.C. Ford, Lexical Lunacy Read the entire review here https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac50410fcf7fdecf816931b/325797e3-a812-4ad6-9f2f-56822aad76e7/IMG_0348.jpg Press - “Emery Schaffer’s bristling 45 minute play I Hope It All Burns premiered at The Barron in the Byre Studio recently under the expert guidance of director Vee Campbell. With a restrained set and costume design and distinct artistic choices, I Hope It All Burns offers an immersive theatrical experience, one which embarks on a beautifully tender yet ferocious emotional experience.” Caroline Burnham, HerCampus Read the entire review here https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac50410fcf7fdecf816931b/1584153695180-LVG8O9EUMI8N6BI705AJ/IMG_6892.jpg Press - “A My Name is Allison packs a lot into its well-paced one-hour running time. It is hilarious and melancholy, sweet and surprising, and never less than wholly entertaining. You'll never see board game night the same way again.” John R. Ziegler and Leah Richards ,Thinking Theatre NYC Read the entire review here. https://www.emeryschaffer.com/plays daily 0.75 2026-03-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ac50410fcf7fdecf816931b/8846d9a6-cca4-4dab-8bea-1eb5c4b2fa4c/Screenshot+2026-03-26+at+10.34.42.png Plays -
