We've seen 14 shows so far this year and this is one of our top 2 favorites. We aren't called stingy for nothing! We're more addicted to Emily than the smack being sold 25 feet away. And we love our smack. But seriously, something about this lovely actress makes us want to clean up our acts, befriend the elderly, and move to Canada. Spotless is simply infectious.

This show is a must see! Emily has created characters with such depth and detail that you immediately build an awareness in your mind that carries you through each transition. A definite "laugh out loud" performance.

Emily brings us such strong characters in this show, each of whom we can all relate to somehow. My favorite is Ernie, the totally rad boss man who "hey hey heys" and tells great stories. Keeping the crowd engaged and involved is a talent of Emily's and this show freaking rules!

"Spotless" is amazing. Beautiful work in every sense: the acting, the direction, the lighting design, the script. Emily Morwen is incredible - she creates three strong, and strongly distinct characters, her mastery of physical theater, her emotional clarity.

Today, the story kept coming back to me. The struggles of each of the characters - whether for love, for serenity, for freedom - and how lovingly and fully rendered they were.

I've seen movies where, a few hours later, I realized that I missed the people portrayed within them, and sometimes that I wished I could know more, spend a little more time with them (for instance, in "Before Night Falls" and "Two Days in Paris"). Same here. Stunning work.

Emily Morwen has crafted a heartfelt story around three of the most enjoyable characters to hit the stage since I don't know when. My favorite is definitely Ernie, the janitor who thinks he's from the Bronx with a pottymouth but the humility to apologize for it. Emily glides seamlessly from character to character and keeps the audience captivated with her mad acting skills and fantastic miming! Not like "in-a-box" miming, but she works on a bare stage and effortlessly creates the hospital world all around her, from the beds to the mops to a cabinet full of vitamins. Don't miss this show.
