A burden a child should never have to carry and questions that shouldn't have to be answered, we're transported through the experience with this family. A reminder to be kind and help where we can.

Finding Neoplasms

A fine example of Burbano's prowess as a writer. Profound story of humanity compressed in a small window of time through the lens of youth. Thought-provoking and highly recommended.

Finding Neoplasms

This is a beautiful play with three strong characters (two are children) struggling with the worst that can happen to you. Some gorgeous moments: little Lucy researching cancer cells, Lexy switching conversations from the octopus to pulling the plug on her. Burbano finds these brave fronts in each family member but smartly glosses over them with the chatter of every-day life. There's little sentiment but much love. You won't find a tidy bow at the end but you will be happy you spent time with this family.
