←Recommendations of You Haven't Changed A Bit

A beautiful play. Tender, it hits the sweetest of notes. Highly recommend this wonderful piece for older actors -- audiences will walk away the better for having experienced it.

I had the pleasure of seeing this live at the Hive Collaborative in Utah. So sweet, so relatable, so very poignant and now on my list of Favorite Shorts!!!! Well done, Donna!!!!

I love that Len has carried a torch for Lottie for 70+ years. After all that time, he's still gonna take it slow. Dinner? Beautifully played, Len (and Donna).

What a delightful play! Reunions are often about exposure (a concept that can make a few among us rather nervous). What this play does well is remind us of two central human issues: one, that one is never too old for exposure, for vulnerability, or for love and two, that life is finite. In these two endearing characters, Donna has produced two lovely opportunities for Senior actors (a group that is often under-represented on stages these days). Loved it!!!

Spot on! No wonder it's had so many productions and won so many awards - this is wonderfully relatable in all the best ways. I love the ending. I love that Len remembers how everyone died. There's no sugar-coating here, and it makes for a poignant and truthful piece that will touch everyone in the audience. Kudos!

I had the privilege of seeing a reading of this piece at the Drunken Owl in Seattle. It is a heartwarming, tender love letter that acknowledges the realities of missed time, while also providing a message of hope that it is never too late. It is a powerful two-hander for older actors (70+) and a total crowd pleaser. The audience reflexively broke out into a collective, "Aw!" at the end before the applause.

A simple and touching two-hander that unfolds beautifully. About the power to connect, at whatever age. Saw this read in Seattle, and would love to see it staged.

A beautiful piece for an oft-neglected age group, this two-hander for older actors offers nuance and beauty, humor and warmth. It's a peek at the past and at the future, hopeful and poignant, lovely and touching. You'll see your grandparents, your parents, or maybe yourself, in this terrific play. Hoke's work here is just so perfect!

This is a clear, thoroughly engaging play that opens up its story to us just as it opens up possibilities to its characters, especially to Lottie. The two characters receive great gifts in this story--hope and the grace of a human connection. Hoke gives us the same gifts. A lovely, masterfully constructed gem.

I recently saw a reading of this play in New Jersey, and the simplicity of this work is brilliant. On the surface, a beautiful ballet between two people at the end of their lives with a chance for happiness. But when you look deeper, Donna also offers a cautionary tale about why we are meant to live life now, before it passes us by.
