In life, we may have deep dark secrets and never have the nerve or will to speak our truths. But, so much can change when death comes knocking at our door. ROBERT J. LEBLANC’s ten-minute play, “What’s Left Unsaid”, is beautifully written. Two sisters have a heart-to-heart discussion while their mother breathes her last breaths. There is so much meaning to this short play. It is well-worth the time to read it. I highly recommend this short play.

I had to put this script down and walk away twice! That's how hard the emotive conversation between these two sisters pulls at the heart strings! Loss is a strange phenomenon dealt with in many different ways and when that relationship was frayed it makes things all the more difficult. That is the complex topic/relationship Bob has explored in a wonderfully delicate way here. Personally I think performed live there wouldn't be a dry eye in the house!

Bob has such a gift with his ability to write about something so serious, yet still be able to incorporate some humor. He once again strikes the balance with this heavy-hitting two-hander about two sisters hashing out nearly two decades of lost time, emotions, and secrets. I am so jealous of Bob's ability to craft material like this. I'd love to see this one performed for sure. It would be a fantastic piece for two actors who like to dig into something with such grit, humor, and heart.
