“ A haunting piece that shakes you and grips you as we wait for the fate of one trapped with their blood as the cure for a virus. Well done! ”

“ This arresting piece pulls you in and cages you — It's gripping and resonant, a terrific piece of sci fi that would be so incredible onstage. Ford's powerful language choices are matched by a unifying sense of dread, and some of the most vivid stage directions I've read. This is right where this genre needs to be — Looking forward to reading more work by this writer! ”

“ AFTERLIFE is a sparse yet explosive short play that had me wanting so much more. Such a specific and expansive world is created so expertly and quickly, and Ford doesn't hold back on the spooky factor either. ”
