“ Trapped animals bite hard and relish in the blood they draw. When hope is drained and pain bears down, when the world screams into your ears that it will not bend to be kind to you, sometimes it feels as if your only response can be to blow it all up. Capitalism causes untold suffering. It leads people to predatory MLMs, to anger, to us all bending our morals. There's excellent comedy in this grand ride of a show by John Bavoso, and a call to fix our world, but also a warning not to lose ourselves in the process. ”

“ John Bavoso takes on so many social elements and with precision and wit and a ridiculous accumulation of comedic elements. Bavoso does it in a manner that makes every character incredibly relatable, believable and in a comedy such as MLM is for Murder (Or, Your Side Hustle is Killing Us), three dimensional. Driven by greed and power, Bavoso forces the audience to fall into the trap of rooting for the wrong people. There are so many underlying messages throughout the show and to see how Bavoso has weaved them all together is the magic of this show. ”

“ This has been on my reading list for a while and I'm so glad I finally read it. Echoing much of what has already been said but it's a stellar script, a beautiful intertwining of two stories. Funny and absurd with much to say about our obsession with finding your passion and getting to the top. ”

“ A strikingly original, poignant, and morbidly hilarious story told through an infectiously charming cast of characters (each of whom is an absolute GOLDMINE for any actors lucky enough to portray them), MLM is for Murder provides an entirely new perspective on "women in the workplace" that is as madcap and absurd as it is gut-wrenchingly real and necessary. This is easily one of the best plays I've read in a long while, and is a an absolute must-experience for all fans of comedy and enemies of capitalism alike. ”
