  • Franky D. Gonzalez: This Will Be Our Year by Ali MacLean
    “

    Ali MacLean has created one of those unique plays where you are (internally or literally) yelling out at both Hugo and Gen to do the right thing or to not do the self-destructive thing, or to do so many things that you know you yourself wouldn't do just like Hugo and Gen if you were in their shoes. It's a play that is heart-achingly sad, raw, tender, and gets you feeling so much so quickly. I couldn't believe I was done with the play when I reached the last page. Ali is a playwright to watch and produce. Read this.

    This Will Be Our Year follows Gen and Hugo from their first meeting on through years and years of love and destruction, and sometimes those two things look a lot alike. This play focuses in on a complex relationship so deeply and skillfully. The writing is masterful -- it has you laughing one minute, then falling apart emotionally the next. It'll transport you. Read it, love it, produce it now!
