Our culture has never known what to do with the grief that women go through after a miscarriage. Gross’s brave drama asks how a woman lives through that trauma, and what lies beyond. -Indy Week
“Gross takes us on a captivating exploration of her journey, broadening our understanding of a situation fraught with complicated and conflicting emotions.” -Beltline to Broadway

I began 2020 performing in a staged reading of Beck Lee’s play Us Against Them directed by Eric Marciano at Pangea in NYC. This year I was thrilled to help workshop two new plays, Elizabeth Versalie’s Social Climbers and the Undiagnosed Nervous Breakdown at La MaMa in NYC and a Zoom reading of Tom Franco’s My Alexandra directed by Apollo Dukakis. More to come!

Alexa Garcia for Drama Queens Reviews calls Susan Gross' one-woman show in the 2018 Planet Connections Theatre Fest, Ruby, "a real gem" noting "this emotion-packed tale would probably make you cry if it weren't for the clever bits of humor peppering this one-person narrative about a woman's journey post-miscarriage... a powerful night at the theater. You will laugh, you will cry, you will learn."
I'm very excited to announce that my solo show Ruby, will get its NYC premiere during Tongue in Cheek Theater's Plus 1 Solo Show Fall Festival. Please join me on Oct 22 and 23, 2017.
