Recommendations of Stargazers

  • George Sapio: Stargazers

    Helluva romance. It has everything a love story needs: a confused couple, longing, tenderness, humor, poetry, calculus, physics, exploding stars. Would love to see this on stage, or better yet, direct it.

    I never thought I would direct a romantic comedy until I read this play, but a romantic comedy like this one is a rare and beautiful thing. It takes the classic love triangle of the guy choosing between his vision of the perfect woman and a hilariously flawed real woman and blends in a delicious mix of science, fantasy, poetry and pop music. I memorized a poem in this play before I ever started working on it. It is pure dessert: at times salty, nutty and even a little bitter, but never overpowering the sweet.

    I couldn't like this play any more. Its mechanism works on all scales: from the personal to the astronomical. It's got a big vision (as does its author) and a grounded heart. It deserves to be both produced and seen.
