Anywhere- The Assembly Theatre, 2026
Toronto Fringe Fetival, 2018

✭✭✭✭ "The script confirms Albert... as a playwright with a sharp instinct for tension... keeping the audience in a state of pervasive, quietly unsettling anxiety... Each moment of release is swiftly undercut by a new turn, making it impossible to predict where the play is heading."
-
"Exhilarating to watch"
-
"The thrill and intrigue, on their own terms, are impressive, but Albert isn’t content with sensation; his dire, relatable scenarios invite you to scrutinize your own worldview. And so I’m thrilled to see this tight, wild little beast of a play again! "
-
"Michael Ross Albert’s writing is impeccable... The piece is a work of true artistry."
-
"Taut, unsettling, and eerily familiar, Anywhere reminds us how tricky and elusive the truth can be, and how quickly civility can fracture when self-interest and control are at stake."
-
"Albert’s gripping script is a sometimes downright terrifying game of cat and mouse, filled with power and intrigue"
-
NNNN "You might think twice about booking your next AirBnB room after watching Michael Ross Albert's thrilling two-hander."
-
"Without a doubt, a must-see of the Fringe."
-
"A poignant, thrilling experience that left me rattled."
-
"A shining example of the art of dramatic escalation... elevated by the fact that it relies and comments on larger ideas about class and the realities of our socio-economic system to work."
-
"A complex power struggle... gripping, darkly funny... Part mystery, part psychodrama, part class struggle, Anywhere starts at a slow boil; then the heat gets turned up as suspicions, confessions and demands explode."
-
"Michael Ross Albert knows how to reel you in slowly, then hook you. He is a rare writer that can state his themes directly and still give you more to think about in the subtext."
