←Recommendations of Two Socks Discuss Loss

What an incredible play about loss, grief and not seeing the world as black and white, but as black and blue.
McGough gives us a lesson on getting past grief and moving on, but beyond that is a deeper lesson for me that speaks to the world as whole, being able to put their differences aside and to start to love once again and help the world breath a little easier. Thanks for this play!

An absolutely lovely play. Unexpected, whimsical, tender and oh so achingly, perfectly accurate. It rides the waves of discontent, grief, reckoning and a warm hope. Two Socks Discuss Loss is the simplest elegiac love story and I loved it.

This is one of my favorite short plays, ever. I remember seeing it at the Boston Theater Marathon (years ago), and was blown away by the simplicity and emotion of it. I've used this many times in class.

Theatrical and wonderfully moving short play in which two unpaired socks talk--utterly convincingly--about their experiences with grief but also with hope. Loved it!

A miracle of a short play. Walt McGough has made my heart break and heal again for hosiery. I've had students work on it many times in classes, and they always find grief, joy, and beauty in it.

A beautiful play about the loss of a partner and finding our way to go on with an open heart. Well done.

Is it possible to identify with two lonely socks in a drawer? The answer is Yes after reading this play. Sweet, poignant, this play leaves you with the warm-fuzzy-feels and a necessary reminder about making connections after the loss of a love one. Perfect for a comedy festival.

McGough's emotion-filled short play unfurls its way from sadness and grief to a bittersweet recognition. Black and Navy may not be a perfect match, but there's something positive to be said about being together.
