    “

    SWEETHEART COME is a fascinating adventure in the mind of a woman who is on the journey toward loneliness, isolation, and mental illness. The writing is beautifully poetical and draws you in from the first page.

    This play manages to capture both a historical period and timeless truths about loneliness and mental illness. I felt deeply for all three of the characters in the play, but of course especially for Emma. The dialogue is beautiful and insightful without being too writerly or cloying. This is a wonderful play that I highly recommend to all for productions.

    I was lucky to catch the production of this at Pygmalion Productions. It's a sharp and an incredibly imaginative play. SWEETHEART COME exposes loneliness, longing, and what can happen to the mind and body of a person trapped. Larson offers three fantastic roles as well. Toward the end I nearly jumped out of my chair! Not an easy thing to accomplish in the theatre. Highly recommend!

    A strange and compelling tale of a woman at the turn of the last century in Germany who would have been a great writer but for the times and the ways women were confined to their homes and families. This is a fascinating, imagistic story that has great moments of beauty.
