A lovely, theatrical, humorous, and poignant piece! Oglesby has written a sizeable ensemble of fantastic roles for teens with characters that are intersectionally rich in many potential ways including gender, sexual orientation, neuro-diversity, and race. The characters both live and breathe in the heightened world of this text while inhabiting very real and nuanced insecurities, fears, passions, curiosities, and strengths of adolescents. Joy is a hilarious counterpoint to the harried teens, and the briskly moving scenes explore some of the major issues of growing up as we see shifting alliances and connections. High school directors take note! ”
