What They Say
“…Hum has an undeniable dramatic power that builds over its 90-minute runtime, and it’s well worth seeing the play to experience its strengths for yourself. By the time you reach Hum’s dreamlike, almost expressionistic ending, the play’s spell has fully been cast.”

DC Theatre Scene
“No one speaks through the first half of the play, but the production — co-directed by Colin Hovde, Theater Alliance’s artistic director, and Nathaniel Mendez, who plays the stranger — is one of the more immersive sensory experiences onstage now.”
