    This is a poignant, fun, 90s-nostalgia-laced (thank you for the Titanic reference) "adaptation." I definitely recommend.

    I loved everything about this play--how it explored, exploded, and refracted "Little Women," how it gave distinct and potent voice to well-drawn contemporary teens, how it explored queerness and coming of age in all of its struggle without feeling exploitative or tragic. I especially loved the bombastic theatricality of it, the three layers of "reality," and how those layers interacted with one another. Excited to see where this goes and to see it on a stage in the near future I hope!

    I am fascinated with this play. I desperately want to see it on stage someday! There is so much to play with, both with the staging and the characters themselves. But the real highlight for me was the dialogue. I am in love with the way Femia writes dialogue. It's beautiful.
