"Happiness is an act of resistance."

I really loved this play and these characters who are just trying to make sense of an awful tragedy.

This play is an act of resistance in itself. With expert commentary on queer discourse, what binds us, what tears us apart, and what we can do when everything feels hopeless, this play absolutely honors those we have lost. So much happens, especially for such a dialog heavy show, that you will not want to stop reading. Generational differences are exposed, stereotypes are subverted, and friends are made. This piece contains the pure essence of the queer community.

In the aftermath of violent acts is when a group of people discover what resistance truly is. It's being alive and embracing love. Well done.

Last Night's language is familiar and organic. Lynett evokes emotions that reach beyond the gay/trans community and touches everyone who cares about people, the sanctity of life, and the blessing in being alive as an act of true resistance!

I truly loved the irregular rhythms, human humor, and vivid characterization of this piece. Lynett here crafts not only a story populated by characters who have potent, subtle arcs, but also utilizes the art of live theater as a place of meditation, dialogue, and community. The characters all finish the play in different places than where they started out, but do so with such nuanced and fine brushstrokes. The conversations about queerness articulate clear and complex truths with a tenderness and sympathy for both the characters visible and the specters that haunt the bar.

This is a fast play - fast dialogue and quick turns; you never dwell in the seriousness, but yet, it still grips you. Would be great to see in production - really enjoyed this read!
