This was definitely an "openly crying on public transit" kind of script! In "Invincible Ones," Samantha Cooper explores grief, friendship, and alienation by zeroing in on a dynamic and eclectic group of individuals. Zoe is a compelling protagonist who you understand all along the way, even as you might be frustrated by the ways she is pushing folks away in her grieving. Every character is rendered in just as nuanced and three-dimensional a fashion as Zoe. Heartbreaking without sentimentality. The choral odes and the powerful visual metaphor of the leaking tub enhance the boldly theatrical aesthetic. Produce this play! ”
