  • Peter Fenton: Losing My Religion (in 140 Characters or Less)

    I loved this play. What a powerful illustration of the idea of someone smart who has ears to hear growing and changing. I saw lots of parallels in Charity's arc with the real life story Megan Phelps-Roper and her relationship with Westboro and her mother, but played in such a way that's applicable to many, many people and relationships. And—that ending. What an excellent ending! I really want to see a production of this play.

    A fascinating look at some radical characters facing some major turning points. Well done!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Losing My Religion (in 140 Characters or Less)

    I was honestly afraid to read this at first. The subject matter, religion through hate, is so very upsetting and triggering. But I'm glad I made it through to the end. It was actually quite beautiful, watching Charity struggle through the messiness of her Biblical convictions and interpretations. Just like in real life, we don't get an ending wrapped up with a bow, but we do get hope. And I loved that.

  • Sarah Cho: Losing My Religion (in 140 Characters or Less)

    What a relevant and heartfelt play about forgiveness and love. I couldn't stop turning the page. I wanted to know what was going to happen next for every single one of these characters. The play does an incredible work of challenging our ideologies to understand, to sympathize, the other perspective. This is another play I would love to see live in a post-covid world!!

  • Maxwell A. Johnson: Losing My Religion (in 140 Characters or Less)

    A challenging play that brings a crisis of faith to the forefront. Poignant, powerful, and unique. Langley brings a fresh and dynamic voice to these characters, and their use of "characters". Modern and relevant.

  • Stephanie Elmir: Losing My Religion (in 140 Characters or Less)

    Lucky enough to have seen the USC workshop, this play is even more powerful with the physical use of the Twitter-verse. It drives and manipulates the characters' relationships, already complicated on their own. Devastating and full of hope, this play should not be underestimated.

  • Everett Robert: Losing My Religion (in 140 Characters or Less)

    This is a play about a nationally known hate group based out of Kansas and one woman's struggle with life long held beliefs. But more than that it is about faith and family and forgiveness. It is about the power of social media and how we can both trust and not trust our feelings. It is a powerful meditation on the struggle of ingrained beliefs and micro-rebellions culminating in a powerful conclusion. I love this play.

  • Lily Cox: Losing My Religion (in 140 Characters or Less)

    An insightful look into ignorance and personal growth. Charity was raised in an ultra-bigoted, conservative home. Throughout the play, we see her question the values she was handed and grapple with her idea of morality. The play is formatted in a way that allows the reader open their hearts and consider the ways we have an impact on other people. Trigger warning: contains anti-gay slurs.

  • Shea King: Losing My Religion (in 140 Characters or Less)

    This is a fascinating and frightening play. This play is reflective of today's divisive atmosphere and it gives a perspective into a family that so many people would just disregard for there narrow mindedness. Please read this play!

  • Damian Stuchko: Losing My Religion (in 140 Characters or Less)

    A great piece for any theatre company in a conservative area who is wants to challenge an audience but not alienate them. There's so much humor in the piece that you're laughing and giggling and then suddenly gasping. Langley has tapped into the zietgiest of the middle american millennial. A great star vehicle for a young woman. Those who are fond of the mother/daughter relationship in Carrie would appreciate a more lighthearted take to the story.
