Heard You Were Leaving

by Megan Rivkin

Aspiring chef and dog-mom, Lane, whips through genres, time periods, and her memories to piece together her failed relationship with her ex-girlfriend. She relives heartbreak, gets lost in her memories and dreams, and tries to do the most difficult thing of all — sitting with her own feelings and accepting reality.

    "A fever dream" is exactly the right way to describe this unique play. The lack of scene shifts keeps the audience/reader on their toes the whole time. I'd love to see this produced!!

    Saw a production of this incredibly inventive and creative play at Columbia University. Rivkin has a gift for dialogue that moves the story along at an excellent pace with plenty of laughs and a lot of heart. I hope there's another performance of this play soon!
