    “ A lovely play that takes our humanity and expands it to a cosmic scale. It manages that wonderful balancing act of being fun and light while also touching beautifully upon deeper subjects of loss, love, connection, reasons for being, the need for validation, and moments of grace. This piece would shine in a night of short plays! ”

    “ A fantastic metaphor for wondering about our place in it all. Do we have purpose or are we insignificant in the great scheme of things? Marvelously done. ”

    “ Eugenie Carabatsos takes complicated, universal concepts like loss, grief, love, connection, despair, and hope, and rather than simplifying those ideas, she makes the context as majestic, universal, confusing, and mysterious as those experiences. The story is intimate and lovely, with two characters that are both recognizable and relatable. Carabatsos’ writing is playful and real, and anyone who has lost a loved one, been in love, or tried to find connection with another person or group of people will discover a piece of themselves in Stella and Stan. ”

    “ What a beautiful gem of a sweet play (no pun intended)! This is what a ten-minute play does as its best: calls into question the nature of existence in a way that causes us to inadvertently smile. Thank you! ”

    “ This is beautiful. It's complicated while simple, sad and funny, and a just a very delightful read in general. I'd love to see what a production team would come up with for this dynamic duo. I could also see this being a lot of fun in a festival or anthology. ”

    “ This is just a beautifully realized play of life, death, purpose and our place in the universe with a cast of two twinkling stars. The play covers a lot of ground in ten-minutes and is written with such care and appreciation of our universe. Everyone belongs. Even a midsize star. Every life is important - even midsized ones. ”
