←Recommendations of Smile, Baby

Not just a wonderful, powerful one-minute play, but a useful blueprint for a sorely needed bit of empathy the world needs more of.

Every girl, every woman on the planet has experienced this. Thank you Claudia Haas for crafting a comeback we'll all be longing to put in to action. Expertly written, this short play should be required reading and viewing in every educational facility in the country.

The perfect revenge, love it!

In one minute, Claudia Haas screams it loud and clear for the people in the back! Produce it, perform it!

Fun, succinct, and true on the page, I imagine this play in production could really pack a punch.

Perfect. Sing out, Claudia.

Smart, sharp. Point well made!

Everything about this play is ingenious: its brevity mirrors that of the abusive behavior it dramatizes, with a similarly lingering impact. The staging possibilities are extensive and tantalizing, giving an ingenious director much to work with and the audience a lot to work through.

As a woman who got sick and tired of being told to "smile" by total strangers when I lived in New York City, this story of a woman being harrassed rang true. Very short but pithy.

A tight, kick-ass short play with a surprise that will get your audience applauding and laughing.
If only the catcallers got treated like this every day in the city, the world would be a safer place for women.
