    “ What seems at first glance to simply be a cute high concept - it's Goldilocks and Baby Bear! years later! and they swiped right on Tinder! - quickly becomes something much richer, stranger, and even heartbreaking. Lohne finds ever more ingenious ways to explore notions of survivor guilt and the difficulties of forgiveness, both of ourselves and others. Smart, moving, and genuinely adorable. ”

    “ This short play by Megan is way beyond JUST RIGHT, it's wonderful, moving, emotional and heartwarming!
    Goldilocks and Baby Bear meet up years later on a date and there are confessions to be made.
    The descriptions and costumes described for both characters are so fitting, and any production would be best advised to follow them sympathetically, for then this play would be beautiful to watch.
    I love this play so much! ”

    “ A very fun and oddly moving piece about Goldilocks and Baby Bear meeting up for a Tinder date, years after she burgled his house. Great comic two-hander with fun roles for actors. ”
