This brave, important play is going to mean so much to the many, many (too many) girls who have experienced assault on college campuses—particularly queer girls, who don't always see themselves in stories like these. The piece does a phenomenal job putting the audience in Maya's headspace using the appearance of the character Brendan - even just the sight of him crossing the stage without any lines was enough to elicit a paranoid jumpscare. Meanwhile, the play does a great job of balancing the real responses victims encounter - the good, the bad, and the ugly. Moving, inspiring work.

One Night in September has a touching poem, with a grand play around it. I love plays that deal with an issue - such as sexual assault - and makes it immediate. Each character takes on different responses and directions to bring this to a great solution. Conversation worthy. Award worthy and production worthy.

I loved this play. I was immediately pulled in by the great characters and polished writing. In addition to the sexual assault, which was harrowing, Dana Hall really captures what it's like to be a college student in this day and age. All of the characters had something to offer a potential audience. Would love to see this produced. Highly recommend.
