    This play is somehow both hilarious and damn terrifying. I read this play out loud with a friend and yes, the language is very "now" and pop-culture heavy, but the characters leap off the page and almost make you die laughing. It also genuinely had me frightened to turn off the light! Amazing. Highly recommend for "100% woke" ladies and gents.

    One of the most unique and fun/slightly scary new works! Great roles for women and and an unpredictable ride.

    This is one of the funniest comedies I've read in some time. The scope of its humor, its reach, is astoundingly astute and its tight structural mechanics only highlight the playwright's voice and skill.
