Have You Been to the New Harris Teeter?

    This play rushes all over you like popped bubbly. What a treat! Funny as hell, as well as searing in its take on the class system--those with and those without who end up cleaning the spilled coffees one after another. I am definitely a Flynn fan after this gem of a play!

    A great reflection of working a retail or similar job. Well done.

    A great read and a piece clearly written for its medium. Flynn uses repetition as change. A live performer can't perform the same moment multiple times without some difference and Flynn leans into this theatricality, allowing a punch we know happened to instead fall in its final repetition. Danielle's explanations of the context read so human and true. I identified so strongly with the whole 'I know I SHOULDn't feel this way, but it's not that bad, and hey you know I'm kind of right actually, but also I knoooow it's kinda wrong' aesthetic.
