Look At Me

    “

    LOOK AT ME delivers a potent punch of raw emotion, encapsulating the complexity of human relationships with finesse. In the standout moment, the line "We all wear masks, but some are better at hiding their cracks" captures the essence of the play's exploration of vulnerability and facade. A masterful blend of fear and heartache.

    An exquisite play where a wife is doing her best to help her husband receive love after war. Absolutely beautiful work.

    "I dream about you." "I dream about you too." Westfall paints an intoxicating and painful portrait of a husband and wife trying to recapture the past of their passionate romance while accepting loss that threatens to destroy their marriage forever. I would very much love to see this wonderful dialogue performed in person. Very well done!
