The layers in this play are like one of those massive jawbreakers that cut your tongue. You’ve got men taking an idea from a woman for a woman who seeks revenge on men for violating women, twisted into a male sexual fantasy & simultaneously producing female copycats, all written from a woman’s perspective. The interplay between fantasy as in superheroes & fantasy as in how the human mind processes our wildest hopes & fears makes for a fresh take on these issues.

A wonder-filled dark comedy with a female lead that shows complexity and nuance. Realism and fantasy mix to create a stew of many flavors and textures. Donna Hoke is a master story teller and her dialogue is done with machine precision. I would recommend this to any producer looking for a sort story to tell that is timely and timeless. Brava.

Donna Hoke's play "Elevator Girl" introduces us to Vanessa, Peter, and Richard. Vanessa and her boyfriend, Peter, create a comic superhero called Elevator Girl as a sexual revenge fantasy. The play weaves graphic elements with realistic scenes, using an elevator as a central frame. As the story unfolds, secrets and consequences emerge, challenging the characters' beliefs and relationships. It's a cool premise and a good read.
