Memory plays can be tough to pull off, but Laura King does so deftly in Memory Box by embuing both past and present narratives with a sense of urgency and a conflict that barrels forward whether the characters are ready or not. The people in this play are fundamentally good, but sometimes make wrong choices, which lends a dose of sympathy too.

I had the pleasure of watching a virtual reading of this play and it was wonderful. Past and present collide and affect the characters in unexpected ways throughout. The dialogue is so rich and the relationships are dynamic and complex.
