    “

    I loved this play at New Georges! It still haunts me to this day - the language and the world, but mostly the characters and their desperate straits, the needs, thirst and longing in the play, but mostly how the women exist in spite of every possible reason not to, their will to go on was unforgettable.

    I saw this production at New Georges and was absolutely blown away. A Southern Gothic magical realism wrestling match of family and longing. And the audience gets splashed by alligator wrestling.

    A gritty, rough around the edges examination of the human condition.

    A strong examination of the human condition when the condition is a rough and harsh reality. I saw a powerful production of Bettis play last year, and while at first it didn't click, I've been haunted by its prose and power ever since. A great work which deserves another run.

    I love this play! Hilary has a unique and raw theatrical voice; this work manages to be wildly expansive and intimately compassionate.

    I've been in love with this play since I heard a reading of it at the Great Plains Theatre Conference. This is huge, poetic storytelling with real muscle by a writer with a profound American voice.
