    A gorgeous and heart-breaking coming-of-age tale that not only embraces gender-non-conforming people, but gives them their own mandatory spotlight for a good ten minutes. If anything, I wanted it to last longer! I see a full-length in this one's future. Bravo, Eliana Pipes!

    A really beautiful coming of age story. Giving us more insight about LGBTQ+ teens and their experiences! I didn't want the play to end. I love being able to see this side of the community when it comes to not being completely sure what you want. I was very invested in the characters as well!

    The play "Stiletto Envy" By Eliana Pipes is definitely a must-read. A true modern coming of age story that covers everything from walking in high heels to non-comforming gender identity. Pipes created a world that allows the audience to become immersed in Sean and Melanie's relationship and see things from a new fresh perspective.

    Stiletto Envy is both heart-tugging and heart-wrenching. It is refreshing reading a play that addresses gender identity and sexuality in such an informative and relatable way. The characters Melanie and Shaun have such defining voices throughout the piece that really brought them to life while reading. I wish I could read more!

    An excellent play that tackles the struggles of LGBT+ youth without making it seem like it has to be a big deal. It's simple. And that what makes this play work. Pipes does an excellent job on characterization just as much as the playwright does on stressing the fact that sexuality doesn't change who you are as a person. A truly immersive read that makes me want more!

    Stiletto Envy is a short, yet complex play. It touches on subject matter that many people are still learning about and this piece would be a beneficial read for them! It is funny, cute, and full of potential for the actors! It really talks about problems that are deeply embedded in our society, with a hopeful outlook.

    Stiletto Envy is wonderful depiction of the struggle of sexuality and gender identity. It brings an understanding to those around who must come to understand it for themselves or others. The writing is witty in its detail and its nuanced characters. I love this story for the modern audience and what it can teach us.

    Stiletto Envy is a norm-defying play that brings about awareness to a subject that is not brought up in most conversations. We follow the two leads constantly putting themselves in uncomfortable situations only to be brought to an even bigger situation towards the end. This play starts off one way, then leads the audience to an ending no one could have possibly predicted. As lovely and comedic as the pay is, it is apparent that Stiletto Envy serves to educate the audience on some of the issues this marginalized community faces on a day to day basis.

    Stiletto Envy is a sweet, simple story of a moment between two teens who are still figuring themselves out, and brings to light the struggles that LGBT+ kids go through in today's society in a beautifully written way.

    Stiletto Envy is an expectation-defying play that deconstructs how we as a society perceive gender constructs. As the play continues on, you get to see both characters develop in unexpected, but thoughtful ways. It is a cute, fun, and hilarious show!
