    Simple and powerful. The best kinds of ghost stories are always motivated by simple human grief and loss. This one sneaks up on you, starting out comic but suddenly turning very intense and gripping. A fine short piece.

    I really enjoy this piece. There's so much in this ten minute piece, and elicited a lot of emotions from me as I was reading it. Would love to see it staged myself.

    The only ten-minute play you should read. An insightful look into the ways the past continues to echo through the walls of the present.
