What stunning storytelling! I love each character and how they move through this world. Descriptions like comparing herself to a rainbow trout hit right every time. Highly recommend!

How many different ways to say that E.M. Lewis' writing is gorgeous, human, transformative and healing? I'm adding my voice to these lovely recommendations to say that the shared pain of this play is what heals us all. Sharing the pain. Sharing our truth. Lewis' writing is so grounded and truthful in every single beat. She's one of the masters of subtext. The shared humanity of her work makes it relevant forever.

The heart of this play seems to find the divine in the mundane. That's the way the light gets in.

Lewis' play is beautiful because it's normal, extraordinary because it's ordinary. Where we may often feel our own inadequacy to capture something that already exists, Lewis, like a weeping willow, shows resilient light peeking through sorrow in her play. I walked away from this work feeling renewed even in the recent sufferings of this world. I cannot recommend this play enough.
