Ugh! This horror story gets under the skin, literally and figuratively. It's a whiplash ride through conspiracy theories with characters more relatable than most in the genre - with plenty of dark humor to leaven the experience. It's on my short list.

The community of national & local readers for the 44th annual Bay Area Playwrights Festival enthusiastically recommends THE TARGETED as a Semi-Finalist this season at Playwrights Foundation out of 755 plays. We were deeply moved by the artistic merits of the structure and character development. We're compelled by the play's promise, as it explores levels of trust among a marginalized community. We hope this play is widely read, finds dedicated collaborators, and moves swiftly towards production. #BAPF2021

I absolutely loved this play. The subject matter (especially our preconception as a society with conspiracy theories) feels incredibly timely. Stylistically the play is sly; while the beliefs these people held are absolutely unbelievable for me personally, I did find myself rooting for many of them and empathizing with their experiences of paranoia. I appreciated the playwright's lens of empathy for these characters, and found the play thought provoking and compelling. #BAPF21
