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
