Interview: Rhett Martinez And Cindy Wang of COLLECTIVE RAGE: A PLAY IN FIVE BETTIES at Mildred's Umbrella
by Brett Cullum - Aug 25, 2026

But it began with her feeling like she wasn't safe in certain spaces, and with that rage women get when they walk down the street and are catcalled, and their voices are minimized. And so she sort of took that. And tried to find, I guess, the most concentrated industrial strength version of that.

Review: CRY IT OUT at MILDRED'S UMBRELLA
by Brett Cullum - Sep 14, 2024

Sometimes, a play does what no other artistic medium can do. It can feel intimate, immediate, and alive.
