Plays
" (Braun's plays)...are lyrical, both in the character’s voices and in the stage directions which not only set up a world through description, but the tone of that description matches the world he seeks to create. He creates metaphors that are simultaneously unique and accessible."
-Jessica Davis-Irons, Artistic Director of And How ! Theater Company
