←Recommendations of He Misses

Funny stuff! Got to see it multiple times, and made me gut-laugh everytime. The playwright has got a real knack for the sort-of absurd comedy. Highly recommend this and the plethora of other plays Patrick has to offer!

Patrick takes an UNFORTUNATELY REAL/ALREADY KIND OF ABSURD issue and makes it so much more absurd and very, very funny. I've been thinking about Tyler shoving Mallory over to get to the bathroom first and the dramatic ending since I saw it. I'd love to see the different ways one could stage piss flowing out of a bathroom.

This remarkable play explores gender roommate imbalance through a urine crisis. The liquidy crux of HE MISSES is more thought about than talked about - but once brought out into the open - the debate is provocative and messier or more complicated than one might think. Is it a psychological pissing on one's turf that Patrick Vermillon is exploring? Decide for yourself how far to take it. An astute mixture of realism sans bathroom carpets and absurdism, this fine work - it's easy to visualize - would spark various animated audience talkbacks wherever it plays.

Absolutely hysterical! Everyone who is not my wife should read it!

Vermillion pulls off a hire wire act few even dare attempt. He Misses weaponizes the grotesquely absurd and wields it like a samurai warrior. The truth isn't pretty and it's wet.

Vermillion covers so much ground in this, and while yes, most of it is covered in pee, it's wonderful! Always nice to find other playwrights whose aesthetic is so similar to my own! This play addresses a slew of canonical pissing plays that truly need revision. I am happy to recommend HE MISSES as a hilarious comic romp to fuel discussion and awareness and potentially change! Please read and produce often!

You know a play is good when you immediately begin plotting to develop a play festival just so you have an excuse to produce it. (Seriously, partner this with Emma Goldman-Sherman's TOILET PAPER and you've got the two most talked-about plays of the evening.) Vermillion's play is hilarious and biting and destined to become a mainstay at any evening of short plays.This is sharp, honest, hysterical writing with a serious bite and a hint of an absurdist bent. Seriously, put HE MISSES on and watch the men in the audience wilt under the knowing gazes of their significant others.
