    This play is true poetry in motion. Using a minimum number of words to maximum effect, Steven G. Martin tells a complete story. He wastes no time letting us into this very private space of vulnerability, compassion and catharsis. So beautiful.

    What a beautiful visual concept. In very few words, a chorus of men representing varied societal roles learn to detach from the negativity and embrace acceptance of themselves and others.

    A beautiful, beautiful play about healing and undoing toxic masculinity towards a path of feeling, caring and connection. Excellent.
