This is a totally engaging, thoughtful and creative play. Good theatre allows the audience to experience new worlds and unseen parts of this one. Max's well acted and directed play does both, with regard to autism and with regard to the more existential challenge of understanding and communicating with those around us. Bravo!

Max Langert has a way with a joke and he's extremely well-versed in comedic plays of all lengths, but GIBBERISH MOSTLY is a refreshing and welcomed risk into the genre of a full-length drama. In this play, Langert articulates the inarticulate. The author finds a clever way to dramatize what we all can only imagine: the interior life of a girl with autism so severe so cannot speak or communicate effectively; in essence, her utterances are "gibberish mostly." Langert creates a rich life of the imagination for his lead character, and we all are left richer by it.
