vietgone by qui nguyen
“Qui’s parents always told him they fell in love at first sight—but really, it was just a hook up.
After the fall of Saigon.
In a refugee camp.
In Arkansas.
A kinda-true love story with a hip-hop heart, Vietgone is a hilarious ride from Marvel Studios writer Qui Nguyen, who mixes music and memory to pin down his own origin story.”
“Exuberantly youthful... a punch-drunk mash-up of hip-hop, road movies, sex farce and Vietnamese-American history. Oh, also kick-ass fights..” — Time Out New York
Company One presents the Boston premiere of Qui Nguyen’s Vietgone in partnership with Boston Chinatown Neighborhood Center. Directed by Michelle Aguillon.

in the forest she grew fangs by stephen spotswood
“A walk through a mysterious forest late at night. A young woman with a secret past. A social outcast who is simultaneously tormented and ignored. A monster lurking in the shadows. And the most unpredictable spectre of them all, teenage hormones. In the Forest, She Grew Fangs by Stephen Spotswood is a bloody fairy tale set in the world of a Gillian Flynn thriller, sprinkled with a dash of Gossip Girl, that delves into the power young women possess--and how they may use it if pushed too far. It is the second production in Also Known As Theatre’s debut season, which explores the reality that while we are each the hero of our own story, we may very well be the villain of someone else’s.”
Featuring Dylan C. Wack, Kira Compton, Branwyn Ritchie, and Karen Dervin, and directed by Kelly Smith. Fight Direction by Jessica Scout Malone

gutenberg! the musical!
by anthony king and scott brown
In August of 2017, Jessica worked with Amateur Hour as the director and choreographer of the collective's inaugural show, Gutenberg! The Musical! Michelle Ciccotelli and Stephanie Occhipinti, co-founders of the collective, created the company to focus on creating opportunities for women in comedy.
"Gutenberg! The Musical! is a hilarious musical spoof in which two aspiring Broadway writers perform a staged reading of what might be the greatest musical of all time. With an unending supply of enthusiasm, the two playwrights play all the parts and sing all the songs in the hopes of finding a Broadway producer to make all their dreams come true. Though the play is originally written for two male characters, Michelle Ciccotelli and Stephanie Occhipinti (co-founders of Amateur Hour) were featured in the leading roles."
Gutenberg! The Musical! is a tale inspired by the life of Johannes Gutenberg, the inventor of the printing press, that will make you laugh harder than any other medieval tale you've ever heard. There's evil monks, wine, and just a hint of John Cena. If this sounds like the story for you, check out Amateur Hour on Twitter, Facebook, and their website.
