    This play is gorgeous. I fell in love with these characters over and over in each scene and the story has lingered for months in my mind and my heart. Kap Taylor’s play works with a delicate touch, moving through nuanced conversations around queerness, class, intimacy, family, and love — but always through a human lens that’s charming, hopeful, tender and incredibly fresh. This play brings big laughs, true heart, and deep thinking to people who are rarely given the spotlight in American Theater. I've never read anything like it. I want to see this play produced!
