    A moving story of uncovering the history and trauma for truth. Well done.

    A thoroughly engrossing piece that examines family history, trauma, and identity in a human, fascinating way. The tension between Lydia's quest for truth and Stan's determination to preserve a certain version of history is palpable throughout, even as the characters engage in gentle and humorous interactions. Things escalate steadily, however, and the reveals about Abraham's true nature and Stan's stake in the lie manage to feel both major and organic. I loved the theatrical grand gesture in the final moments--how I'd so love to see it realized visually and aurally onstage!

    Grabbed by the action, I was drawn deeply into the characters’ eccentric humanity through dark humor. PRESERVATION weaves an intriguing story, beyond the suspense of discovering what had been ordered to be hidden in a lock box forever. Urgent to verify their identities, past and present, the characters bend each other to serve their deepest needs, operating with cleverness and passion.
