"Nylon Fusion Theatre Company is
exactly the right kind of theatre for New York City now." Says advisory board member John Patrick Shanley.
"[It] provides entry, excitement, recklessness, candor and comedy, in a joyous atmosphere."

Review:
“This production of Fuente Ovejuna has within it much that can resonate with a contemporary audience, not only about torture and the waging of fruitless wars, but about how people, in the name of collective values, can resist the abuses of imperial power. There is much to like here!”
– Michael Bettencourt
“Directed by Andy Goldberg. The town of Fuente Ovejuna brutalized by a tyrannical commander, falls on the shoulders of a young woman to ignite a rebellion. Nylon Fusion Collective had a very exciting season: The support shown to Nylon by Paul Haggis, John P Shanley and even Robert Zuckerman from the New York State Council of the Arts among many others was, and is, astounding. “
