    I had the pleasure of seeing this play at the Great Plains Theatre Conference, and its beautiful handling of life and loss in a Southern, Baptist context was truly exceptional. It captured these lives with respect, and never portrayed their religion or region with caricature or exoticism. Instead, the play portrayed these characters' pain through poetic, theatrical imagery that has stayed with me. A must read.

    This play by Isom-Campbell is continually surprising, stuffed with beautiful language and metaphors, touching on mystery amid the mundane. Wounds and Honey reflects not only on a factual happening of “those other people’s lives,” but on the experiences of each of our lives. This plays speaks with humor, with compassion, with sharp truth.

    As a playwright and an actor, It's always such a pleasure to take part in a play that really allows an actor to dig in and fill out a character. Stacey's beautiful story was part of the Great Plains Theater Conference in 2016, and I found so many wonderful moments to expand upon in my character. It was an honor to play a role in this reading.
