    Devastating and gorgeous. Orange Julius is a play that resonates. I love this script and all of its theatrical potential. There are so many reasons why we need this play on the American stage and beyond, please continue to stage, and teach this script.

    A play that's as fluid as memory itself, it dips in and out of moments that intersect and connect beautifully. I love this play.

    Please someone PRODUCE THIS PLAY! It's gorgeous and deserves to be seen. The reading at the O'Neill was one of the most impactful theater experiences I have had in years. I promise I'll be the first to buy a ticket!

    This is the first Basil Kreimendahl play I've read and it's got an impressive command of character, dramaturgy and language. The main character, Nut, explores her own gender identity via imagined "memories" of her father in Viet Nam (along with a fantastic masculine fantasy character, Ol Boy), interspersed among time-skipping snapshots of his later physical decline. Taken together they trace her reluctant journey towards understanding him. The play's construction is unexpected; the scenic juxtapositions are jarring in a super-interesting way. A dark play about dark subjects that ends in a moment of beautiful redemption.
