David Hansen: The Parking Lot by Adam Szymkowicz

“

I feel this play. A site-specific piece for our peculiar time, a romantic, social-distanced two-hander, utilizing the wide open space of a parking lot to celebrate and expose the most intimate, meaningful, and humiliating moments of one relationship, those most grand and minor. Couples have been aggressively challenged by quarantine and the playwright handily addresses the strain. Szymkowicz mightily manages the limitations of our current theatric situation in a manner both natural and presentational. Excellent work!

Parking Lot moves with a casual playfulness that allows for deeply-felt moments to take you by surprise. With only the most minimal of elements, the play tackles complex questions while also delivering plenty of laughs. This is the first play to move me to tears in a long time. I think this is exactly what audiences need right now. Hope to see this produced far and wide.

“
The Parking Lot is the opportunity we’ve been missing. It’s an outlet to remember that the arts are changing — forever, maybe — but they will never cease to do what they have always done: form us into deeper, better versions of ourselves.

"Playwright Adam Szymkowicz hit on a simply brilliant plan, hatched during the pandemic, of penning a play revolving around a parking lot, to be performed in a parking lot, with audience members staying in their vehicles."
