    This play went places I never thought was possible when I first began reading it. This play blends Shakespeare and college party culture to put addiction under a microscope in a way that I hope changes lives. I feel like we all know Micah's and I hope that the Micah's out there experience this play and are changed in only the way theatre can. This should be produced at every major party college.

    FOOLISH is William Shakespeare as focused through a J. Chavez lens; the Shakespearian wit, plotting, and poetic language are all here, as are contemporary versions of his characters, but it is all sublimely Chavezian in its edgier execution. Epic in every sense of the word, this is a wonderfully dark comedy; by turns gleefully hilarious and heartbreakingly touching in its lyrical callowness, it will provide a field day for directors and actors when it is staged. And I hope to see it when it is.

    A surprising story that plays with the most fun of the Shakespearean archetypes in ways that are interesting, funny, and unexpectedly touching.
