A beautiful play about a very unusual sibling relationship. The mime imagery throughout is equally heartbreaking and hilarious. The gay representation in this piece makes my heart soar. I wish I could have read this play when I was 17.

Extremely heartwarming, shines a light on endless brotherly love.

This play rocks. Mora V. Harris knows how to look through the lens of what it is like to be the "other" with such grace and empathy, you can't help but get sucked in. Even if it's something as silly as miming, she does it with heart.

A beautifully written play about two very different brothers who are trying to understand one another and exploring one's identity.

A very engaging & unique take on two brothers & their strained relationship! I could easily sympathize with both, very well written!

What a funny, original, and poignant play. In about 30 short pages, Harris rendered Jerry and Tyler's relationship with such complexity and nuance, I felt like I'd known them for quite a bit longer--in fact, I'd love to read a full length two-hander starring these brothers. In short, potent scenes Harris elegantly establishes and follows through on each character's wants and needs, and the dramatic action is always focused on the two young men. The use of mime is an excellent extended metaphor and I loved how queerness was just a subtly drawn fact of life. Beautiful!

Harris' does a very compelling job when it comes to displaying the complexity of relationships between siblings. The characters are unique and both entertaining in their own ways.

This play is a beauty, deserving every single one of its accolades. The relationship of these brothers, at once both lost and found, is so precisely and poignantly portrayed by Harris we can't help but be drawn into their lives, and once there, completely captivated by these two disparate yet similar siblings. A gorgeous piece of writing that I imagine works even better on stage, and a feast for the two actors lucky enough to play these roles.

Relationships between siblings can be complex... or so we'd like to think in order to explain away our own feelings about our brothers or sisters. In this poignant and often touching story, the relationship between Jerry and Tyler -- two very different people -- is achingly inarticulate... and that's the beauty of it. Neither of them can really say how they feel, so they act it out in their own way. I would love to see this on stage.

Harris does a fantastic job developing the compelling relationship between two brothers as one brother takes on the role of guardian. Both characters are ultimately human and seeing the two characters struggle to get what they want from each other makes for a play that is worth the investment!
