“ Rosendorf's poetry leaps off the page, resonant and clear. The way the writer approaches using two languages, English and Spanish, drew me in as a reader, it's fluid, organic, and made me ask questions, in a good way, too. The spareness of the lines speaks to their craft: Restrained, energetic, alive. How can anything be so beautiful, and elicit such strong feelings of sadness, anger, fear, in a reader? This gorgeous play so deserves to be in full-production soon. Any creative team will find luminous words, like a pathway, illuminating. Simply stunning work. ”

“ I was fortunate to see a reading of this play at Campfire. This script confronted the audience with some of the people involved in the inhumane situations that are happening at our border. The use of puppetry was a brilliant use of theatrical magic to immerse the audience in the desert, without taking us out of the fact that the play was set in our reality. ”

“ Beautiful work. Andrew builds worlds in an almost dreamlike way but still allows them the gravity and importance they demand. Urgent, immediate work with puppetry that calls for a wonderful theatricality. I had the pleasure of getting to know Andrew and his work at the 2019 LAMBDA literary conference. Andrew has a silent creativity continuously cooking and I can't wait to see where his work leads. Andrew writes plays I want to see onstage NOW. ”

“ Wow--what a beautiful piece. Definitely a play where the reading of its glorious stage directions provides a lovely glimpse into the visual, aural, sensory world the play might have on its feet. The three central characters are so finely drawn, and vivid as real and distinct human beings. Their interactions are written with tenderness and humanity. I'd be thrilled to see how the puppetry elements and other design pieces would come together to bring this piece to life further. I hope it gets developed and produced soon! ”
