Collabor-Fucking-Ation!

    .Collabor-Fucking-Ation is a helluva a ride, with two full-bore characters locked in great dialogue. Not just for writers it takes us from snappy remarks to the real pain of what we do to survive. Kudos, Ms Feeny-Williams.

    All's fair in love and war, but not necessarily in the footnotes. "Collabor-Fucking-Ation!" is a fantastic (and charmingly stressful) exploration of two warring artists stuck in between the beginnings and ends of their career, and how the theatre industry can make or break someone in mere seconds. Claire and Wallace are awe-inspiring in their emotional depth, as Feeny-Williams allows their flaws to take center stage as much as their strengths, and to walk away with both being understood for the better.

    It won’t come as a surprise to you when I say that Rachel Feeny-Williams’ “Collabor-Fucking-Ation” is a beautifully written masterpiece on inspiration and its surprising sources. Claire and Wallace’s arc from willing to say anything to hurt one another to vulnerability and a genuine partnership depicts the true nature of collaboration— Learning to trust. On top of that, the characters are endearing, witty, and so very human. I hope desperately to see it onstage one day, but until then, I will be recommending this play again and again.
