    If you're looking for a free class on how to write subtext, read this play. One Month Along tackles a host of complex subjects like love and betrayal that could become a bit bathetic, but not in the hands of Franky Gonzalez. I appreciate how there are no real heroes or villains in this piece, just three people trying to navigate their lives and artistic careers, unfortunately in ways that often hurt one another.

    A very poignant exploration of love, friendship, and parentage. The way Gonzalez uses time is truly unique and makes for a very unique experience. It could be an excellent fit at any theater!
