A play that begins in extreme realism, but slowly pulls the roots out from under the characters – not unlike the narrative happening in the background. Jenny and Poh Poh's bickering relationship is full of love, and I love the slow boil of the stakes, keeping even banal conversations simmering with tension.

YOU SHOULD BE SO LUCKY is a truly theatrical piece -- I was fascinated by the physical transformations going on both inside and outside Poh Poh's apartment, and the ways that both the apartment and Chinatown were characters in their own right. I loved Jenny and Poh Poh's relationship and could have kept listening to them for a long time. It was such a treat to see a reading of this play at the 2026 Colorado New Play Summit and I'm excited to follow its continued journey!

A poignant examination of the connections and rifts between two very different generations. Intimate and funny, steeped in specific cultural references. When the two characters come together it's a joy to behold, when they fail to it's truly heart-breaking. The visual stagecraft metaphorically depicting a world falling apart is startling and a gripping close.
