    Batty Boy is a top-notch short play with incredible voicing, conflict, and theme. You will struggle to find a playwright more able to paint a theatrical picture in dialogue and stage direction. Lanier's voice is not to be missed.

    This piece is electrifying! A fascinating and heart breaking piece with narratives we don't usually get to hear in the American theatre. This play paints a magical picture and Lanier's command over language proves him a true master of the craft. Run to read this play! It deserves to be seen!
