←Recommendations of Do You Party?

The dialogue in this play sings - it's quick, realistic, full of subtext, and very funny... not to mention uncomfortable for anyone who has found themselves in poor Abby's shoes! If you don't yet understand what's so predatory about MLMs, this one play has the power to illustrate the way it makes victims out of everyone involved. It's subtle and almost voyeuristic, leaving the audience wishing they could stand up and intervene and save ALL of the women involved! It's gross, and I loved it!

Sharp, uncomfortable, and darkly funny, Do You Party? captures the desperation to belong with painful accuracy. Rivkin’s overlapping, hyper-real dialogue makes Abby’s slow realization both cringe-inducing and deeply compelling.

Wow, this play terrorized me in a good way - super-uncomfortable stuff going on! These characters are intense, and I really felt for Abby. And the ending is killer. Great work!

Loved the dialogue in this play. Really reminded me of women in my life that sold Mary Kay. You can't help but connect with Abby. An excellent short play about longing for friendship and the ugly side of MLMs.

Megan Rifkin has a real gift for capturing the rhythms and idiosyncrasies of young women’s conversations. In DO YOU PARTY, the dialogue is practically musical in its overlaps, ellipses, and subtext. Abby’s compulsive directness stands in stark contrast to her would-be-friends’ MLM-inflected sorority-speak. A killer piece for college-aged actors with comic chops.

A fun comedy that makes us question how we receive new people in our lives, in contrast to those who take advantage of people's insecurities. Meg Rivkin is a wonderful writer, who writes plays that keep you wondering what will come next.
