    “ Extremely timely and tongue-in-cheek, Guyton approaches the situation with both silliness and sincerity. The craziest thing was that the way it was presented didn't actually SEEM that crazy--in this day and age, it isn't all that hard to imagine. Great dialogue, great lines, phenomenal ending that asks more questions than it answers. Guyton is a master. ”

    “ A great play for our times. We all have that moment where we think we've put too much somewhere on some feed, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram. Guyton plays into that with such hilarity and brilliance in this ten minute wonder. It's making me rethink posting anything in the future! ”

    “ I started reading this play, and then realized I saw it done at my university last year. It's a great piece on how technology can change our social interactions. Of course, it's also hilarious. It was definitely an audience favorite that night! Fun roles! ”
