    I had the great privilege of producing an audio version of this play for my audio play podcast THEATRICAL SHENANIGANS. The wonderfully chaotic dialogue between Ray and Daisy is brilliantly constructed here as the audience is invited to watch the back-and-forth between the two after Daisy's journey into the world of sci-fi has left her with an....interesting outlook on the world. That, coupled with the wonderful twist at the end makes this not only a great play to watch but a wonderfully fun piece to produce.

    I produced an audio version of this play on the GATHER BY THE GHOST LIGHT radio theater podcast. Ken Preuss has crafted a fun piece of theater here filled with many popular science fiction references. He keeps the story unpredictable and keeps you guessing at what's next for this couple's relationship. With a wonderful surprise ending that is a delightful twist! A perfect and tidy little story. Highly recommended!

    I just had the pleasure of hearing this play read on the Gather by the Ghost Light podcast. It offers a witty take on an obsession with Sci-Fi carried to an extreme and on the vagaries of young love. It also has a terrific and surprising twist-ending. All-in-all, the play is a real treat.
