Recommendations of ALL HALLOWS EVE

  • John Busser: ALL HALLOWS EVE

    A ghost story that's a love story that's a horror story that's a dark comedy. You don't read those every day. C.S. Jones displays a light touch here with three interesting characters who's lives very easily intertwine, just not in the best way. Poor Evelyn becomes one of type of gothic horror characters that Tricia writes about, but it isn't all romance when the object of her desires, fireman Luis is now out of her grasp forever. Talk about a plot twist. Great Halloween fun.

  • Emma Goldman-Sherman: ALL HALLOWS EVE

    Here is a short Halloween play that'll thrill and send chills! I love what Jones does with time giving us the future in the first scene and then taking us beyond it in the second. I also love the ghost right there up close and personal, able to talk with the audience and influence the characters. Wonderful fun!

    Sometimes, I can write a recommendation right after finishing a play. Other times, I have to fully digest it, let it simmer with me. "All Hallows Eve" is a confounding, darkly tongue-in-cheek play that dares you to forget about it, because the second you do, it'll strike. There's an absurd lilt to the dialogue and world, even the characters' moods. Putting together the puzzle is fun, disturbing, and much like the smoke from the cigarettes, lingers with you (and around you) long after the flame is out.
