Hello My Name Is... Reviews
ArtsBeatLA- Recommended
"...The subject matter of Hello, My Name Is… is partly about people trapped in their beliefs and how willing they are to endlessly delude themselves to avoid acknowledging they were wrong. It’s a smart, funny and well-acted production that is unfortunately extremely relevant to our current time."

"...Skillfully directed by Darin Anthony, the play is set at a retreat, where members of a cult are awaiting "The Great Metamorphosis" with an anticipation and wonder similar to that of devout fundamentalist Christians who believe the final Day of Judgment is nigh. For adherents of The Order of the Twelfth and Final Sun, such an event may finally be upon them, as foretold by J (Juan Monsalvez) their beloved teacher and guru. On this particular morning, the disciples have been instructed to rise early, skip breakfast (all food in the communal kitchen had been discarded the evening before) and meditate until they hear the sound of chimes, signaling the beginning of the great change."

"...Hello, My Name Is…brought to mind other cults with charismatic leaders, made-up names and questionable doctrine. The four followers in this play capture the desperate till-death-do-us part ideology of the truth believer."
