What others have said...

"It is a wonderful thing when a dazzling talent announces itself and better yet when it is seen and acknowledged... The world need your plays, now more than ever, Mêlisa." Award Winning Playwright, Theresa Rebeck

"Mêlisa doesn't write one kind of play. She won't put herself in a box. She has infinite interests and she is not afraid to write about them. Her curiosity takes her to dangerous places. She is brave. And also a lot of fun." -Emmy Nominee, Cusi Cram

"...It’s a fair bet that no one has envisioned, planned and pulled off a creative endeavor as expansive as “Of Spacious Skies.” - John Moore, True West Awards

“We often use the phrase ‘a singular talent for storytelling’ to describe part of our selection criteria for playwrights. Mêlisa Annis has that very singular talent.  Mêlisa explores intimacy, trust, abandonment, abuse of power, and relationship dynamics — all told with her characteristic dark wit and deep wisdom. Mêlisa can make us laugh and make us uncomfortable, all while keeping us on the edge of our seats.” - Artistic Director Parity Productions, Ludovica Villar-Hauser

"...A taut, very funny, and brilliantly played dance of wits and emotions" - Jon Sobel, BlogCritics on Charlie's Waiting
