    One of the most beautiful and captivating plays I've ever seen in production. Language itself came alive as a distinct and discrete character in this story of people who are struggling across language divides. It engaged my mind every minute.

    A wonderful scripts that deftly weaves the world of the hearing and the deaf together, showing where they intersect & how they diverge, all circling around a incredibly engaging love triangle. The Company One production in Boston made me fall in love w/ this playwright & that company. I live a few blocks from Gallaudet University & would love to see a DC company tackle this play.

    Brilliant piece of writing. Aditi shows incredible craft as she weaves together the lives of these complicated, 3-dimensional characters. Imaginative and unique, this engaging play shows character types that are not often seen onstage, making the script an engaging challenge for performers and audiences alike.
