    Christopher Plumridge demonstrates his mastery of crafting emotionally resonant characters and dialogue in "A Ruby in a Sky of Diamonds." Through the exchange between April and Summer, Plumridge develops a deep, real connection between mother and daughter that transcends the boundaries of life and death. The playwright's ability to bring the conversation to a perfect balance of humor, vulnerability, and love and his keen understanding of human relationships. The dialogue flows naturally, revealing the character's deep feelings and desires while propelling the story forward.

    A beautiful sonnet to a love that overcomes grief and touches the heart string as so many wish. April and Summer are a pair that bring out the best in each other. A tender, beautiful play.

    What a beautiful story. Well written characters and a sweet tender moment between April and Summer brought the biggest smile to my face. A gorgeous play that I would happily see performed.
