←Recommendations of I Wanna Fuck like Romeo and Juliet

This play is an absolute joy. Playful, loving, intense and wonderfully queer.

There's so much heart in this play. It reveals itself to you in the most beautiful way. I came for the title and left with such a sense of wanting more.

Just listened to this hilarious play on THE PARSNIP SHIP - the soul and wit of these characters from outerspace, to earth and back. Giving up on love vs. feeling like love has given up on you. Queer queer queerness. Questioning god(s). Feeling seen, feeling alone.

A brilliant play that shows the necessity of love to overpower anything from our past. It must be restored for all to be right in the universe! Funny and well done.

Andrew’s characters are full of so much heart and soul. His poetic writing paints every scene with beautiful detail and just the right amount of magic. Thank you for reminding us of Great Love.

We LOVE this play. We love this play so much we named it our 2019 New Light New Voices winner and were beyond thrilled to close our season with the world premiere. Therefore, our hearts were broken to postpone this production due to COVID-19. This play is filled to the brim with magic, theatricality, and the most important ingredient of all: love. It is vast and intimate, tender and rough, funny and tragic. Andrew has crafted an epic story that sparks the imagination and fills the soul with poetry. Highly recommended.

I fucking love this play. It’s an epic, poetic, highly theatrical, cinematic (in the best way) exploration of Queer-with-a-capital-Q love, complete with mythical figures, camp humor, and a deep exploration of how past trauma can affect our current relationships. I listened to the reading on The Parsnip Ship podcast, which I highly recommend for the chance to hear it come alive. A really fun challenge for a game cast, director, and team of designers that I hope to see fully produced one day. Highly recommenced!

This play is full of magic, vulnerability, humor, queer love, and high theatricality. Rincón is a beautiful poetic writer, artfully weaving together threads of folklore, love stories, and fantastical journeys. "I Wanna Fuck like Romeo and Juliet" had me laughing one minute and then sobbing the next. An important work exploring the depths of how we open up to people, how we love them, and ultimately, how we learn to love ourselves.

In the beginning the play introduces itself as:
"A story about love, fucking vs making love, heartbreak, intimacy, shame, sexuality, break-ups, Queerness with a capital Q, magic, love, Spanglish, Latina, Latinos, Latinxs, Color, Greek Gods, sex, cuddling, sex and then cuddling; spectrum, silence, outer space, wings, a shotgun, journeys both spiritual and physical and the way each can be the other, and how Love is confusing and wonderful and terrible and confusing and awful and wonderful and the realization that all love is really Queer with a capital Q"
This is all true. Very tehatrical. Shows the possibilities of theatre.

Aside from being timely, poignant, hysterical, and absurdly well-written, this piece is utterly fearless in its staging and makes no apologies for the world it demands. Truly inspiring!
