←Recommendations of The Curtain Speech- A Monologue

Our playwright doesn't recognize the many levels of narcissism that he embodies, a source of the vibrant, weird humor that propels this piece. His nonchalance about extraordinary aspects of his narrative ls employed to delirious effect. Perhaps we should all reconsider even giving curtain speeches lest we inadvertently reveal too much of ourselves!

What a wonderful rollercoaster! This is a brilliantly crafted monologue that has humor, drama, and a great central character! Brilliant work by Madison Fargo!

I love how things get honest and more than a moderate amount of ego goes on display. There's something wonderfully Pythonic about the unravelling playwright's words. Who knows, perhaps the seven-hour play went well?

How you can argue with a playwrights who says you don't care what you think of their play because they're not changing one word in it and I would say that's a very good thing in this fascinating, can't turn your eyes away from the accident of a monologue. Bravo.

I’m amazed by the journey Fargo takes us on with this monologue in only 3 pages. The levels of absurdity keep rising and I was so thrilled to be along for the ride. Genius use of the the curtain speech as a framing device!!

As absurd as this piece is (in a truly wonderful cringe-in-the-best-way-possible way), it strikes so many truths about the act of creation. Fargo crafts the brilliant, true dichotomy of an artist's lack of self-awareness and deep, suffering self-criticism. When the play turns in on itself, my heart twists with it. Leaves me both wanting more and satiated with the story that has been told -- an incredible monologue.
