Snowball

Recommended by

  • Ava Love Hanna: Snowball

    Maeve Kelley Baker’s Snowball is a brilliantly absurd dark comedy. Using a pink snowball -- the weirdest snack cake -- as the catalyst for a dispute that snowballs into a Machiavellian psychological war is both unhinged and perfect. Baker crafts a play that organically grows the tension, paranoia, and one-upmanship until it builds into an avalanche that neither of the main characters can escape. This would be an amazing anchor show with shorter plays performed during the closing intervals.

    This play is a fast paced roller coaster of a ride that is intriguing and entertaining from start to finish. An funny, smart musing on obsession, and the way two perfect strangers can ensure their combined mutual destruction. Loved it!
