  • Greg Lam: Alma Baya by Edward Einhorn
    “

    An intriguingly drawn character piece about women trying to grasp their purpose in life amidst a strange situation made stranger by the arrival of someone who does not fit their conception of life. A master class in world building.

    A powerful look at a future world with barely enough resources to survive. Who will make it and how did they get here? Well done.

    I love this play. This alternate world is intimately and imaginatively rendered and leads to both humor and intrigue.

    The tautness of this play is sensational. Edward's world is not indulgent in the least, but built like a thrilling, intricate machine of inter-relationship and ratcheting tension. An audience might draw a million and one provocative meanings from Alma Baya, which is part of its beauty -- it plays your imagination like a piano. Edward's play is a master-class and brilliant primer on how to create sci-fi for the stage, how to inject genre theatre with humanizing themes, naturalism, and delightful theatricality that won't break the bank. A play I can't wait to see staged.

    Briskly moving and clever sci-fi parable. Darkly humorous and keeps you engaged with progressive surprises and well-timed expository information. The specificity and uniqueness of the characters combined with the open-endedness of their symbolic weight and meaning makes this a really intriguing piece for a director get their hands on! I hope to see this onstage some time soon!
