←Recommendations of W or M?

Glenn isn't thrown too far off his game by Stephanie's transition to Al in this warm and witty comedy. It is heartening to see that a caring relationship can morph and endure over time.

A friendly match of wit and insight.

Friendship goes through transitions as we change throughout our lives and here's to the endurance of it. Beautifully done.

W is for...another winning piece by playwright Lucy Wang. Wang expertly sets up a tennis game as a metaphor for the serves we send each other throughout life. Hopefully Glenn and Al won't have any fouls in their future as they navigate the transition of their friendship from a gender perspective. Playwright Wang gives us so much to see in a few short pages. Sweet, funny and insightful, W or M? will have you rooting for both players long after the match has been called.

Oh those volleys - they land and cajole. They miss and taunt. And what you are left with is a tennis match between old friends who have everything to prove and nothing to prove - except that their friendship endures. The world spins optimistically in Wang’s play and that is cause for celebration.

What I like about this play is the optimistic spirit the playwright has for the situation depicted. The dialogue bounces quickly and the characters are great. A fine little piece.
