What a roller coaster! But damn, this ride is rickety! It wobbles at the turns, whipping you about and slamming you together, until you throw your hands in the air and scream with glee.

A beautiful progression as Chip and Brett meet for the second time! Heyman skillfully shows us who they are while keeping their inner identities from each other. As Brett lowers his walls Chip reinforces his own. The conflict is engaging and infuriating. The setups are sublime and the payoffs abound. The advent of something beautiful occurs and we feel lucky to have witnessed it. Wheeee!

I love how this short play builds slowly, with a clear examination of how identity, attraction and, in at least instance, fear become entwined for a group of young people in college learning from each other and navigating a wide range of feelings. The dialogue is natural, and the dramatic tension is strong. Very well written!

Good stuff! This is a poignant story about college students just trying to figure things out. What I really loved was the examination of the pressures put upon youth that come out before their peers, and the way this shapes their relationship to themselves and others.
