  • Donald E. Baker: TIME WOUNDS ALL HEELS

    Alterman masterfully plays with audience expectations throughout the course of this ominous little bench play. The dialogue, peppered with allusions to John Lennon songs, is light and bright, until it turns heavy and dark just before a big reveal changes the whole direction of the piece and alters our conception of the relationship between the two characters. Excellent and engaging work.

    "Time Wounds All Heels" is a thought-provoking play that explores the themes of karma, loyalty, and the consequences of our actions. The dialogue between the two main characters is powerful and engaging, and as you read through their conversation, you can't help but feel a sense of empathy for both of them. Alterman has done a superb job with this beautiful piece!

    "Oh look at all the lonely people..."
    This play unravels skillfully and kept me on the edge of my seat. With a dash of existential philosophy, a pinch of suspense, and a smattering of betrayal, TIME WOUNDS ALL HEELS is dark and beautiful This piece would be perfect in a 10-minute festival.
