    This powerful and poignant play takes us into the ambiguity and ambivalence growing from loss, mental health challenges, and fractured family dynamics as a daughter returns to find her mother waiting for Bigfoot in the night. Beyond great writing and characters, this fine piece leaves us asking what will be found in the darkness.

    An interesting cryptid-centric piece that also highlights one family’s drama/trauma. I particularly enjoyed the ending of this story, which takes a very Big swing! Now available to read in THE BEST TEN-MINUTE PLAYS 2023!

    Great twists and turns in this play that kept me guessing. Ms. Rice creates an entire WORLD in ten minutes with layered, complex characters.
