I have been using the opening monologue for auditions - its beyond powerful and sadly still resonates. I just re read it- my heart breaks especially for Max and Anna. So well done.

A powerful look inside political extremism and the division that gets wider. How does this affect one on the individual level especially when there are loved ones at stake. Well done.
