Here's what they had to say.
"An amazing garden for creativity, talent, and passion to thrive. Making Our Space is a place where talent shines and is truly a testament to the power of community."
— sophia hiller

"MOS made the single biggest impact on me both personally and professionally. It gave me the platform to cut through all the red tape. I met my manager. I booked a role in a local theater company's original production.
I will always have immense gratitude for MOS and the people behind it."

"Felt like a top shelf Broadway show hidden away in a little black box.
Beautiful script. Lovely, lovely acting. Sharp direction and design."
— audience review

"Kin is a rare gem of a play and this production captures its virtuosity. It’s funny yet poignant, both simple and complicated, unafraid to be messy. It’s deeply human. I’m excited to see what’s next for Making Our Space Theatre Co."
