    “ I want to play Tree #1 so badly after reading this play. But maybe not a MacIntosh. Maybe a Honeycrisp. So maybe Tree #2. "There are no small parts" etc. has risen to a new level as Hayet deftly balances the delicate ego of teens with their surprises and slyness. This should be acted out before every first reading of a school play. ”

    “ Haha! What a great li'l nugget of a play. Hayet encapsulates the drama of High School Drama Club *perfectly* -- in just a couple of pages! This relatable play could translate easily for any audience, though -- it's not really about who gets to play Dorothy. It's about who *has* to play the tree. ”

    “ Hayet captured these kids, their speech and their responses, so perfectly! He's one of my favorite dialog writers on NPX. This is so so cute. This would be perfect for a classroom exercise in middle school or high school. And also perfect for a one-minute play festival. ”

    “ A brief piece focused on and for actors who know how to control their own narrative, who take Stanislavski's notion of "No Small Parts, Only Small Actors" a little too seriously, who believe in creating a character-bio a bit too much, or get lost in Hollywood mythos or fan-fiction...or just maybe know how to con their way up the ladder. This would easily work in any short comedy festival, or one themed around acting, theatre-making, movie-making, or the countless urban legends surrounding the classic film version of 'The Wizard of Oz'. ”

    “ Love the actor dedication showcased in the characters of this play. I laughed about a million times in these two brief pages, Hayet has a way with quick and clever dialogue. ”
