“The germ of the festival, Matschullat says, grew out of an interdisciplinary project she was working on at Harvard, where she teaches. It was a performance piece about the 1969 moon landing, and it involved a cadre of engineers and theater artists.”

“This new software application, the creation of stage director Kay Matschullat and developer by Andrew Mirsky, is meant to do to the rehearsal practice of script alternations…[and] usher it into the smooth and slick digital age where neither paper or time is wasted.”

“Thida is the heroine of Catherine Filloux's "Eyes of the Heart," a beautifully done one-act drama about the place where horror and grief meet…The show, expertly directed by Kay Matschullat, continues at 508 West 53rd Street through Oct. 30…”

“Director Kay Matschullat has captured all the humor that is in the play’s nonsensical story. She has made the characters real enough to make the audience care about them, but never lets them take themselves too seriously.”

“On a recent Saturday afternoon, we went to N.Y.U.’S Tisch School of the Arts along with some seventy senior citizens to attend a special performance of an undergraduate production of Elmer rice’s 1929 Pulitzer Prize-winning play “Street Scene.” The matinee was the brainchild of Kay Matschullat, a busy young woman who was the show’s guest director.”

DECEMBER 29, 1986

“The Hudson Guild has redeemed at one stroke all those dudes the past few years with its production of Derek Walcott’s beauitful, ironic two character comedy ‘Pantomine’…The play, as directed by Kay Matschullat, moves swiftly, and the enthralling words of Derek Walcott are done full justice.”
