  • David Beardsley: Gown by Robert Weibezahl
    “

    This is a beautiful, heart-wrenching play that has the rare effect of making you smile and cry all at the same time. It's beautifully written and nicely plotted. You learn what the "unexpected agenda" is surprisingly early, but that's okay. It allows Weibezahl to explore the emotional implications of his story to full effect. It's play that makes you want to go hug someone you love.

    This is one of Robert Weibezahl's most beautiful and sensitive pieces of writing; at times funny, at times gut-wrenching, and at all times touching. Filled with sentiment without being overly sentimental, the tears it wrings are earned. Read it, produce it. And weep from the genuine feelings it evokes.

    What a gorgeous piece of writing. Gown has it all - humor, pathos, an all-women cast, and a very relatable yet surprising twist. I'd love to see this produced. Robert Weibezahl has once again set the bar high for fellow playwrights - give us a break, will ya? - with this beautiful short play. Have hankies at the ready as you say Yes to the Dress, and yes to Lynn, Annie and Courtney.
