This is the kind of theatre I want to see. Kirkman meets our time's grim ecological prospects with wit and charm. Its absurdity is never absurd for long. These are the kind of characters that are missing in theatre- the scientists! Long have I yearned for a play that deals with a precise, defined doom with precise, defined comedy, that asks the questions you're afraid to ask yourself, a play with voice in a time where voice is the enemy. You should be reading this. This is the theatre I dream about.

A wildly imaginative play about mortality and possibility! Expansive questions are posed with a subtle, yet beautiful theatricality. I must echo fellow recommenders on Kirkman's bold stage directions acting as both witness to the truth of the play and compelling narrator. An excellent new play.

What a play. Writing recommendations is difficult, because you want to SAY something. But I long to throw out my in-the-moment emotions. It's hard. Do I talk about the existential crisis, both the death kind and the kind where you find meaning from within yourself? Do I say Kirkman's writing and stage directions make every page buzz with the artistry of a novelist? I don't know. Do I say my eyes are tensed with thought, emotion? I don't use words like best. There is no objectivity. But I think this might be one of my favorite shows I've read. Ever.
