This is such a tender, understated end-of-life play full of rough-edged characters and moments of magic. Violette’s ability to make us feel like we’ve known these flawed, desperate characters their whole lives in just a few pages is so impressive. I can imagine this show really connecting with audience members—especially that final moment—taking them on a ride from laughter to tears and everything in between. A poignant, delightful read—highly recommended! ”
