    A powerful piece about sexual assault and the fight it takes to tell the truth and find peace someday. Well done.

    I loved the theatricality of this piece, most clearly seen in the prologue and in the private, individual monologues within each character on their own "planets." I would love to see a director and designer tackle those moments. Dana is a compelling nucleus for the play, and the evolution of her relationship with her sister and the complexities of their family story make for an engaging read. Beyond Dana, each character was, in fact, distinct and interesting. The ending was plausible but surprising; Sad and melancholy, but I retained hope for Dana and Mirabelle.

    A remarkable, brutal, beautiful play. This play tackles topics and engages with characters that aren't often presented onstage, much less presented with such skill and nuance. Cain never shies away from the complicated or ugly, but because of the honesty of her work and the deep flaws of her characters, they are all the more relatable and engaging to watch. Read. This. Now.
