What audiences are saying...
"Emotionally gripping. Sat on the edge of my seat seeing how it progressed." -Christian, NYC
"Incredibly insightful and poignant for today's day and age...explores the complexities and contradictories of being a female trying to connect with American society through the power of media" -Daliah, NYC
"The theatrical solo drama show can often take us further than the stand ups can - unable to stray too far from their persona, which is why I always find the solo show with one foot in theatre ultimately more rewarding. If you want a dynamic, challenging, dark and witty show, told with fearless panache, then get down to theSPACEuk , Surgeon’s Hall and tune into MIDNIGHT COWBOY RADIO." - Peter, Edinburgh
"Better than a bucket of buttered biscuits on a Southern Summer Sunday!" -Aaron, NYC
"Funny, raw, and will tug at your heartstrings within such a short span of time 100/10" -Jay, NYC
"The script is so smart and Ally is absolutely captivating to watch" -Catherine, London
“Ally Ibach’s *Midnight Cowboy Radio* is a whirlwind of manic joy, bursting through the airwaves like a confetti cannon of life advice. Her energy is infectious. Under Patricia Runcie-Rice’s direction, the show blends wild enthusiasm with deep introspection. ‘Change begins with a spark of madness in the heart of true art.' Equal parts excitement and enlightenment."
- Martin Colton, Host BTS Creative Academy Podcast, Edinburgh
"I can't remember when I've had a better time at a one-woman show (I go to a lot them). Midnight Cowboy Radio was silly, sad and at times quite beautiful. Ally's onstage energy and presence were astounding, yet completely relatable."
-Regina, Baltimore
