←Recommendations of Quiet Storm

'Quiet Storm' is such a tender piece, with a constant prompting of one character to fill in the blanks of the other. It's melodic in that way-- and this two hander is an excellent opportunity for the actors to dive into what is unsaid between the lines!

Written in rhythmic and poetic dialogue, the piece almost drifts in and out of a dream state in a way that draws you in magnetically, much like the two lovers in the play are drawn to each other. Love's use of motifs create a unique musical pattern to the piece which make it flow effortlessly.

‘Quiet Storm’ is an emotionally charged play featuring a budding relationship and an ever-evolving love story. We witness the vulnerability and struggle of Harris and Bethany as they navigate their own personal insecurities and past experiences. The dialogue reveals underlying tension rife with uncertainty, creating a fragmented narrative that still feels true to life. The pacing is slow and deliberate, allowing the audience to absorb the emotional weight of each moment; all the while longing for a hopeful resolution. In this play, Ken Love has beautifully captured the delicate interplay of love and fate.

Quiet Storm is deeply atmospheric. I was on the edge of my chair wondering if Bethany and Harris would work out. Like the musical genre - Quiet Storm - this play has a wonderful rhythm and flow. Its hopeful message is especially welcome during these turbulent times. It would be great to see this play performed in a theatrical evening dedicated to love stories.
