    This play perfectly brings up the themes of loss, religion, family, and acceptance. It’s a very beautifully written piece and it allows the audience to step into Louis’ dream-reality world.

  • E. Q. Campbell: Grown-Ass Louis

    Wonderfully comforting, and a prominent message to never give up and follow your heart, then you will see a greater sight than the blind before you.

  • Emily McClain: Grown-Ass Louis

    This is an aboslutely incredible play! Easily one of the best I have ever read. Walsh's ability to create a world that is evocative of dream-reality and grounded in authentic emotion is nothing short of brilliant. The visual imagination of the piece is genius, and the human connection with grieving is astonishing. I am in awe of the work. Read this play.

  • Stephen Kaplan: Grown-Ass Louis

    One of the best ten-minute plays I've ever read. It astonishes me how much is packed into this tiny and beautiful piece that had me laughing, gasping, and gutted by the end. Wonderful.

  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: Grown-Ass Louis

    LOVE LOVE LOVE this PLAY! Grown-Ass Louis is someone we can all care deeply for! The language is great and the images just keep coming from the balloon with the manila card to the monogrammed robes to the dolphin, the images create the specificity that torments us into entering this world deeply and fully and therefore we have to feel. So there.

  • Claudia Haas: Grown-Ass Louis

    Grief comes in waves. Walsh explores how the passing of time only makes the remembrances more poignant. Part fable, part fantasy, Grown-Ass Louis gives the audience moments to process their losses. Everyone can connect to Louis. Everyone can smile at the adults trying to explain grief. Everyone is and knows Louis.

  • Rachael Carnes: Grown-Ass Louis

    Grief's never really gone. This lovely play explores the loft we might still discover, even when darkness fall. Warm, funny, theatrical: It's a hug. We need those right now.

  • Arianna Rose: Grown-Ass Louis

    An absolutely beautiful, strange, funny, heartbreaking play about loss, dreams, and dolphins. You'll be drawn into Louis' world of dreams and desire. A magnificent ten-minute play - one you'll be talking about long after the final image. I hope this one gets produced everywhere.

  • Izzy Salant: Grown-Ass Louis

    I'm no stranger to plays regarding the death of a loved one and Judaism, so whenever I see a play with those attributes it's a must read. After reading this play, I can say without at doubt it's not only a must read, but a must perform, a must watch, and a must produce. Walsh crafts an amazing, heartfelt, gut wrenching, and hilarious story all in 10 pages, and it's truly a work of art.
