    When cryptids and ethics entwine! I really like how this play makes the audience reflect on the question, "Who is the real monster here?" A great play that has more than a mysterious lake creature in its depths.

    I was fortunate to get to see this play at the 2024 Midwest Dramatists Conference in Kansas City. It would seem to be the perfect match: Mythical creatures such as Bigfoot and social media! Oh, but what about the merchandising? A fun little piece by Kyle Walker.

    The strength of this short piece is not the high-concept but the wonderful characters that author has created that come together to capture the moment. The exaggerated, but unfortunately all-too-real, people who are drawn to the event are so wonderfully developed in just a few moments that we are with them as they clash with each other.
