I love, love, love this play. The characters are completely relatable and I identified/empathized with each of them at varying points of the play. If you are looking for an interesting, funny, sad, dark, touching play for four dyamic actors, look no further than Halcyon. An excellent text for scene study classes and colleges/universities.

An exquisite piece! It is full of everyday poetry--both beautifully natural speech and spare lyricism. I loved the use of distance and proximity to explore relationships, and just like her dialogue, Mohlman's staging combines high theatricality (with wonderful potential for movement and design) with really intimately and specifically drawn scenes. The nuanced queer identities on display here provide some much needed representation that I wholeheartedly appreciated and felt kinship with. The folding in of faith into these character's intersectional identities was impactful as well. I hope to see this piece onstage in the near future!

What Danielle does so beautifully in her play "Halcyon" is elegantly craft a balanced and layered narrative of singular characters who flirt and joke and profess love and desire, and confront, admonish and break each other's hearts. I love how a simple truth from one of Danielle's characters seismically shifts the ground underneath another and suddenly this familiar terrain is all the harder to navigate. If we were one of Danielle's characters, at least by the end, there would be hope for us all.
