JASPER is a well-rendered, poignant, and complex portrait of the different challenges three parents face. In Andrea and Drew, MacDermott has given us a nuanced look at the struggles of parenting a disabled child, from their unending love to what feels like finite emotional and physical resources to cope. Drew's connection with Shayla happens organically and feels both plausible and surprising. The scenes are written with human warmth, even as the characters experience and express their feelings of being trapped and overwhelmed. The ambiguous ending is moving and punctuates the play with healing and hopeful moment. ”
