    “ I love plays about complicated sibling relationships and when you add in a touch of science fiction and dark humor, I'm totally hooked! Wonderful work as always and I'm looking forward to checking out more from the United Plays collection. ”

    “ Terrifically clever play with a touch of speculative humor that makes the audience question what they're seeing and suggests the existentialism that saturates major life events. In this case, Beth and Letia are embarking on a major life journey and have stalled, both literally and perhaps figuratively. This is one of those plays that delights and entertains while reading - both characters are fantastic and well-balanced - while also leaving the audience with rich questions to ponder. ”

    “ I enjoyed the dialogue and dynamic between these two sisters, as well as all of the story's paranormal elements! ”

    “ I love a good gut-punch of dark humor! This play had me hooked after only a couple lines of dialogue. ”

    “ A delightful ten minutes that asks big, deep, life changing questions and answers them with ridiculously charming theories, sort of like a distaff “Big Bang…” but less abrasive and brainy, more heartfelt and touching. And funny. Very, very funny. ”

    “ I love everything about this play and not just because it made me laugh out loud, which it did! I found it so relatable to my own circumstances with my sister, and a mother who would stop at nothing to bring us together. Even death wouldn't stop her. Such a witty and playful comedy. I would love to see this in all the short play festivals! It's wonderful!

    “ A terrify story of sisterhood and a mother who wanted the two to discover something together on this adventure. Excellent! ”

    “ An engaging dark comedy that reveals many layers of the sisters' relationship in a short, pithy piece. I enjoyed reading several of Claudia's pieces. ”

    “ I adore the way Haas writes sisters. They have such a deep, natural relationship--and Beth and Letia are polar opposites. I love how Mom's urn is an odd third character. I couldn't stop smiling as I read this play--it's silly and crazy and ridiculous, but it's tender and heartfelt and a little spooky. Two actresses would love this hilarious ten minute play--and audiences would connect too. ”

    “ I love this play! The humor and the sisters and their discussions of snakes, ghosts and aliens. The bond between them is so believable and the dialogue is so funny and the action flies by because of it. There's never one false word in this tightly woven gem!! Bravo! ”
