    Take a difficult subject, add in some squeamish lines, then some fast-paced dialogue and you have an excellent two hander by Kantor. I love the vegan who wants to eat a cow, just so long as it's blindfolded! Wonderful, albeit dark and animalistic, fun!

    I love Aly Kantor’s dialogue! This short is a fantastic two-hander about two young women waiting for test results, and their situation feels like the perfect metaphor for the real-life situation many (most?) girls find themselves in, where they’re told they have to be one way, subdued and restrained, but they really want to rage and scream and not conform to the expectations/demands of others. I love this so much.

    What a thrill! Aly Kantor creates lovely dialogue and great suspense with this ten-minute piece between two fun and exciting characters! I couldn't stop reading it until I finished. Brilliant work!

    Well THAT escalated quickly! What a ride we're taken on, as two very sexually frustrated women voice (or maybe howl) those frustrations and decide to embrace their inner beasts. Addressing everything from body image, diet hassles, sexual wants versus sexual gets, this piece says some very smart things while wrapped up in a horror story. Well worth your time.

    Two women tap into their rage at sexual exploitation, body image, diets and general patriarchal bullshit. The dialogue is fast paced, full of humor and surprise. It all builds to a howl of liberation achieved in a most unexpected way.

    A ton of fun for two actresses! The final reveal is worth the wait. Would be a great piece in an evening of Halloween themed shorts!

    As a hard core carnivore, I care deeply for these seaweed-considering young women who are stuck in the patriarchal hell of No Potatoes. And this play is hilarious. And this play thrills me with desire and howling. Great theatrical language! LOVE!

    I think this would be so much fun for actors and production team and a funny and smart addition to any short play festival. Lots of deftly handled surprises.

    Not just deftly dropping an insanely good title, Kantor brings what might be the only lycanthropy-positive story I've ever seen. It's delicious (heh heh heh). Jess and Bex's conversation while waiting for test results gives us a feast (I'll stop) of insight into the simmering rage and exhaustion that comes from living under patriarchal "feminine" standards. It's funny, smart, and just the perfect amount of cathartic. I'll never think about ice cream the same way again.
