    “ A perfect capture of sexism and the culture that supports the patriarchal world we live in. Well done. ”

    “ Saw this at the Utah New Works Theatre Project. Jolly good show! Sexism deconstruction and implosion. Beautiful. ”

    “ Bublitz nails another blatant moment of sexism (perpetrated by another woman to boot). The ending is incredibly sad as we watch this poor mother and daughter share this horrible moment. This play needs to be produced ASAP. ”

    “ Bublitz masterfully shows how a word or two, an action or two, can raise a person and her self-esteem or, in the case of EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH, deflate them. Audiences come to their own conclusions thanks to Bublitz's finely written dialogue and actions that feel real-life, low-key and non-melodramatic. A wonderful short play. ”

    “ Phenomenal, phenomenal piece. Bublitz has a finger on the pulse of women in America in this current moment in time. Every woman will resonate because every woman has felt that moment when they go from being someONE to someTHING. It's so painful to see the wordless interaction between Taylor and Jordan--the way that all of Jordan's bravado and pride gets stripped away--literally--in one second makes you ache, but in an important way. The end is a quiet triumph. Thank you, Bublitz, for being somehow both quiet and loud in the statements you make. Highly recommended. ”

    “ This play ushered me through such a range of emotions in such a short space. The relationship between Jordan and Taylor is so authentic and honest from the first moment, which makes the end so powerful. Every part of this play feels uncomfortably close to home for me -- the female body in the corporate space, the male gaze through a camera lens, the relationship between three women of different but nearly-overlapping generations. Jordan is a woman stuck between the different elements of her identity. Simply: this play is saying a lot in little space. Read it. Produce it. ”
