Are you feeling the buzz?  Feeling that strange combination of excitement, confusion, anticipation and apprehension that comes when you get your copy of the Festival Guide in the mail?

You know you're going to sit through some trainwrecks.  You know you're going to watch performances that make you want to jump out of your seat and say Yes!  YES!  YES!!

But do you know where you're going to be each night after the show?

 BRAT RETURNS!

Co-artistic directors Lee Ann Etzold and Madi Distefano have joined forces to bring you a brand spankin' BRAT PRODUCTIONS.  Re-envisioned, revised, revitalized.  As the hot smog of budget cuts and shrinking audiences attack our city, Brat women Etzold and Distefano bring us Back. To. Brat.

Completing this powerful, action-filled, estrogen-pumping triumvirate is Melissa Rodis.  General Manager and BratGirl Rodis is whipping the BratCave into squeaky clean shape -- and she is more than an alfred penny's worth!

In addition to receiving accolades from Philadelphia Weekly as the company with the "Best Production (Play) of 2009-10," BRAT Productions has also been nominated for 2 Barrymore Awards this season.

Sweet Brat News from Daily Candy's "Sweetest Things 2009"!

Over 5,300 people came out for a scary-fun time during the world premiere of Haunted Poe. Apparently the good people at Daily Candy thought we had a pretty "sweet" show on our hands, and decided to nominate Producing Artistic Director Michael Alltop in the "FUN" category of their year-end "Sweetest Things" awards. Why one person from Brat would be nominated—there were over 70 artists who worked on Poe—is beyond us...but hey, we'll take publicity wherever we can get it!
