←Recommendations of i

This warm and vulnerable four-hander embodies the notion that the only constant is change. As Sarah and Jake find the courage to try again (and again) with each other, we are urged to find similar embers of courage to fan once more within ourselves.

A captivating play as we follow the journey of this character as she heals and opens herself up to hopefully a new and positive outcome. Well done.

Whew! This is a beautiful and melancholic heartbreaker of a play with a strong undercurrent of humanity, a good sense of humor, and a subtly woven sci-fi bent. "i" is a unique extended metaphor for grief, depression, and the lengths we go to heal ourselves after traumatic events. It poses the excellent question--what is the cost living with your grief rather than relegating it to a compartment you never open? Talbott offers no easy answers to Sarah's plight. Sudden revelations at the end are effectively potent, and the play's conclusion is both somber and hopeful. A lovely piece!

A play that keeps you guessing from the jump and keeps going into surprising new directions with every scene. A fantastic drama of relationships with a sci-fi edge.

A brilliant character study of a woman escaping her past. Set slightly in the future, Jeff Talbott’s twisty, mysterious, funny and sad play about a wife who embarks on a new life — where has she been?, where is she going?, what’s her story? — has the hint of a romantic comedy with elements of mother-daughter drama, sci-fi yarn and family tragedy. This four-actor play tackles universal human ideas with heart, humor and hope. You will never forget it. And you’ll want to see it again and again to uncover its rich layers.

I am ready for so much more science fiction in our theaters! I caught the world premiere of "i" at Pioneer Theatre Company, it's a tender and funny play. It makes you think about the possibilities coming in our future with medical advancements, and the devastation those possibilities might create.
