Charlotte writes characters that seek out connections with one another while dealing with the profound consequences of pedestrian disappointment. People trying to connect when they've been broken, but not broken because they didn't win some great prize but broken in the way millions of everyday people are broken. I believe it's hard to write those stories and make them resonate... because things that are day-to-day and pedestrian tend to be hard to theatricalize. But Charlottes engage with them well and her plays should receive more attention.
