    “ With SEEDS, Hoke explores age-old questions about how and when the biological urge to procreate weighs on families and especially on women, who—as the pandemic showed us—still bear most of the burden. But as weighty as those ideas are, this is no intellectual treatise. Instead, SEEDS is a sizzling simmering story of passion and possession with twists and turns along the way. The one-act audio play is superbly produced!! ”

    “ This is such a gripping and multilayered play about complex choices, family and decisions surrounding parenthood. Donna Hoke does an exceptional job exploring the motivations of each character while providing surprises about their connections. The audio version is especially successful, too, where the use of sound and music support the script itself while also providing additional context and meaning. This is a play I'd greatly enjoy watching on stage and it was incredibly successful as I listened to the audio version through KDC Theatre. ”

    “ This is has heartbreaks happening in so many parts of the plot, so many characters being squeezed into places they are not comfortable. Hoke does an excellent job of bringing to life some of the real complications that face couples and parents as they approach having children and caring for them. ”

    “ I really enjoyed the intriguing treatment of flashbacks in this play, incorporating past into present scenes. The relationships are juicy, and the theme of twinship fascinating. ”

    “ This play on the subject of conception succeeds in that it is not about that one thing, but how the urgent need some feel to procreate affects all things, past, present and future combined, and that the more control you believe you have over the creation and development of life, the greater the chance for disillusionment, heartbreak and loss. Compelling, sympathetic, with several dynamite characters for women. ”
