I’ve said it before, Ken Love’s writing oozes with atmosphere. And that is certainly true for MOONLIGHT OVER L.A. A film noir homage, this play is complete with memorable characters motivated by love, money, and revenge; gritty dialogue; and plenty of plot twists that make the reading breeze by. Someone stage this already!

Ken Love’s MOONLIGHT OVER LA is engaging, thrilling, and wildly entertaining. The way Love molds his characters and places them in the trials and tribulations of LA in the 70s is done in such an unique and intelligent manner. The characters are extremely well drawn and the action has great pace to it. This phenomenal read would only grow in power if staged. Excellent!

Dark, atmospheric, moody, full of love yet hate..... and perfectly noir.
Moonlight Over L.A. is fine writing, as slick as Joe himself. This play had me hooked from the get go as it weaves through the streets and characters of 70s L.A. audiences will be dying to find out how this clever play ends.
