swift sharp chilling satire. Like if Glee was eiffel-towered by John Waters and Carmen Maria Machado--which I mean as a high compliment. great fucking work

This play is a bright bandana in the back pocket of modern theatre. It not-so-subtly coded queerness is a rip-roaring defiance of how hetero-normative standards manifest through pretending everything is "normal." The characters are satires and stereotypes rendered in that perfect mix between endearing and infuriating. Most importantly, the play turns its critical eye to its own queer subjects and how easily we subsume ourselves to straight standards. Great dramaturgy and biting satire masks itself as just another play about all those dead gay bodies that keep popping up.

From the second page of this script, it hits and keeps on hitting. Like a swift and lightfooted boxer, it moves swiftly and keeps punching at things, making sure you never get too relaxed. It is strikingly funny, rolling around in the irony and using theatricality to push the message forward. And it is a message that should be heard. This play is urgent, important, and I hope that this story gets shown across the country. So smart. So moving. Masterful.
