    A powerful look at a future that could be all too possible and the search to recover what was lost and heal. Well done.

    Beautiful play & timely reading in 2020. I didn't expect it to end hopeful, but it did, which gives me hope. Bentley-Quinn is an amazing voice and I would give almost anything to see this staged soon.

    This play is exactly what modern theatre needs: a powerful story revolving around a strong, female, Syrian refugee lead. Kari Bentley-Quinn has a knack for painting a future that both evolves key facets of the present while building a bold new world. In THE DIVER, the audience dives for the past in the same way Amena does, and what we surface with is just as cathartic. This is an essential story for the modern stage, as, maybe, if we all pay attention, we can be better than our projected future.

    This play is an utterly awesome semi-apocalyptic epic, a chilling glimpse into an all-too-possible future, a beautiful journey of searching and healing, and a profound love letter to New York City. I have loved watching this script develop and absolutely cannot wait to see it on its feet, fully realized.
