    What an incredibly fun and clever play! I was swoon by the characters, intrigued by the plot, and enamored with the world Escobar created from get go. Touching on heavy subjects like equality and gun control, but never becoming too serious to mess the Rhythm, Escobar transport us to a world that's easy to get lost in. The cooler part? Is that its our world, our history, but in Escobar's hands is a sci fi masterpiece. Best part? Finding out this is a series!
