    “ Jennifer O'Grady has structured this short play in a compelling way, even more so than if the focus was simply on the parent or on the driver. Spare dialogue conveys the subtext and the tragedy of this accident. Well done! ”

    “ A heartbreaking short play, all the more so for its conciseness, its understated tragedy, its whallop of a slowly and painfully building realization that shatters the reader at the same time that it satisfies through its artful handling of trauma, addiction and the lasting effects of split-second decisions on our loved ones. ”
