    An endearing tale of the “second” twin turns tragically into the tale of the surviving twin. A simple set and Elizabeth Shannon’s exquisite narrative combine to heighten the impact of this haunting, emotional piece. Outstanding.

    This play packs so much in a short number of pages. Starts out very light and humorous and then the ending hits you right in the heart. A really great short play about sisters and school shootings.

    In what should be the safest place on earth...our schools...Elizabeth Shannon's, Kaylee and Adelyn sheds light on the unfortunate reality of the danger that lurks there. With a haunting rhythm that rattles and resonates, Shannon's dialogue almost serves as a nursery rhyme-introducing questions that are seemingly simple and clear but whose answers are impossible to accept.

    Another poignant and gut wrenching piece from Shannon. Shannon's writing has an honesty, simplicity, and urgency that demands to be heard. A devastating look into the reality of generation lockdown.

    A heart-breaking emotional gut punch that is all too real. The characters are quickly relatable and that makes the events effect the reader and audience that much more. Well done.

    A heartrending little gem, Shannon does a terrific and poetic job depicting the richly intertwined emotional lives of twin sisters - which she then deploys to devastating effect in crafting the most original cry of outrage against our school shooting epidemic that I've seen in quite a while. Shannon is clearly a young writer to keep an eye on.

    "Kaylee and Adelyn" leverages its rhythmic dialogue to delve into the themes of identity, grief, and resilience. It's also a play that leaves the reader with a profound appreciation for the beauty and fragility of human connection - I imagine this would leave quite the impact on a live audience as well. Produce it!

    This is a haunting, beautiful, quiet play about the burden of gun violence on the survivors, and the burden of being a twin. I would love to see a full production.
