just a little more

one more quote from the Ovation Recommended production of Everything Will Be Different. i know it closed in November but I'm just reading the reviews now...


"Alana Dietze (Charlotte) carries the weight of this universe on her waifish shoulders. A riveting vulnerability flashes through an apathetic teenage facade, and what begins as humorous idiosyncrasy becomes a sad mask hiding an unbearable pain. This transformation is devastating. Everything Will Be Different is a stirring character study of this very specific person and the collaboration of playwright, director and actress makes us care about her." -- Andrew Moore, Mad Theatrics Stage Blog

must. see.

please come to this show.



"fearless"
"Dietze fully inhabits Charlotte's spiky persona, daring to risk alienating us before exposing her pain..."
-- the LA Times

"This is an evening you won’t soon forget, especially the bravura performance by Alana Dietze."

"a must-see performance by Alana Dietze"
--Tony Frankel LA Stage and Cinema

"Alana Dietze, as Charlotte, gives a stunning performance." -- Curve Wire

I CANNOT TELL YOU HOW EXCITED I AM FOR THIS PLAY

you may remember a posting about a public reading of this way back when: http://www.alanadietze.com/2009/07/everything-will-be-different.html

wellll this time it's the real deal. and i fall a little more in love with this play and everyone involved in it each day

i play charlotte - a teenage social outcast of sorts who deals very very poorly with the loss of her mother. the play is a dark, slightly deranged comedy. heartbreaking and hilarious and bleak and hopeful.
