Recommendations of All the People You've Been

  • Jonathan O'Neill: All the People You've Been

    A body-snatching horror with lots of humor & empathy to provide warmth beneath the chill. The complex relationship between Lucy and the spirit who possessed her mother ( / is her mother? / wants to be? ) is so compelling. The same's true for the way PEOPLE employs its actor ensemble to track the body-snatching theme. As the characters age & change, they translate to new actors -- and this exciting scene-to-scene trading is the kind of thoughtful theatricality which makes plays fun to produce and fun to see.

  • Cheryl Bear: All the People You've Been

    A fascinating exploration of the mother one comes to know that the power of that connection and love in the impermanence of it all. Well done!

    This play is maaaaagic. It's funny, heart-breaking, and deeply contemplative. Particularly recommended for those with a love for stories about mothers and daughters.

  • Katherine Gwynn: All the People You've Been

    A tightly gorgeous and devastating play. Capodicasa has written a story that melds the horror of sci-fi body-snatchers pulp-fiction with the allure and mythology of a long forgotten folktale. But more than that, this is a play about a parents', and their children and the desperate actions we take to care for another person.
