    This. Play.
    This play effortlessly wraps its arms around classic literature and pop culture and the everlasting quest for women to come into their power in spite of the men who would stand in their way. Kimberly not only understands the voices of young people, she loves them so damn much that she gives them the kind of complexity and depth on the page that they possess IRL. What a gift she is.

    This play is great. It is about growing up during the #metoo movement. The characters and relationships are complex. The play is surprising - and keeps you leaning in. It is engaging to watch the student characters navigate issues of loyalty, who to believe, and who is the villain. Thru the use of The Crucible it effectively flips the perspective of who are the heroes in our society and what we value. Each of the characters stories give us a new perspective to consider.
