I love this play—the characters, language, theatricality, structure, even the font. There’s so much danger just beneath the surface—and the supernatural is just the tip of the iceberg. Walker has a way of dramatizing the pushing of sexual boundaries and toying with emotions that feels both true to teenage life and campily heightened at the same time. This whole fuckin’ play is a big mood—sexy, scary, sinister, silly, and smart. Read and produce this play right now, please! (P.S.: “A single Pomeranian barking” is the best stage direction ever.)
