feminine octagon [or, aristotle can eat me]

Recommended by

  • Nick Malakhow: feminine octagon [or, aristotle can eat me]

    This play is so inventive and the theatrical landscape so vividly rendered that it just begs to be produced by a creative and resourceful group. The allegorical connections to mythology underscore the entrenched, cyclical, and ever-looming nature of the forces of toxic patriarchy and the male gaze on sex and sexuality. The thread of Medusa's story throughout is particularly potent. The razor-sharp humor is undeniable, even as it unearths and explores gutting truths about the aforementioned issues. I'd so love to see this on a stage!

    I’ve known Amy for a long time, and I remember their first full length play, and their incredible amount of growth as a storyteller is admirable - I actually got a little jealous of this play. It’s a fantastic ride that captures some of the under notes of life with a humorous and abstracted realism that has a nice bite. It’s a play with versatile possibilities, and I greatly appreciate all the silent symbolism that gives a good chuckle when you catch them!

    I love this brilliant play so much I want to die with it. It's an incredible journey that everyone should read and produce right now, as soon as we get out of the pandemic. Some of the most fun scenes ever. Plus meaning. Inventive language. Fucks with structure in the best of ways. It is the party it searches for.
