The community of national & local readers for the 45th Bay Area Playwrights Festival in 2022 enthusiastically recommends MEMORY OF ICE as a Semi-Finalist at Playwrights Foundation. We were deeply moved by this play's protagonist and examination of the climate crisis and questions of what future we're investing in. We were compelled by this play's promise in its soundscape, structure, and characterization. We hope this play is widely read, finds dedicated collaborators, and moves swiftly towards production. #BAPF2022

I'm not sure I've read anything that takes on these specific climate issues in such an energetic and uniquely theatrical way. It's beautiful and consistently engaging, with strong characters and a landscape evoked through language, mood, and the music of the glaciers. Awe-inspiring work.

A scientist grapples with balancing her important field research with an unplanned pregnancy in this timely play about environmental collapse and the relevant intertwining web of women’s rights and racial and economic equality. Campbell paints an incredible portrait of the global threat, and the local community, facing first-hand changes to their sustainability, as a result of climate change. The playwright’s approach to world-building is thoughtful and thorough, without feeling overdone. It’s sharp, astute – the levity creating a continual well of emotional connection. This play is brilliant - and its ending is both necessary and crushing. Produce this!
