The slow burn of this intense play burns very brightly indeed. The characters are immediately engaging and each have their fun quirks and mysteries, but slowly, the tension ramp ups, particularly with the arrival of a mysterious stranger. I especially love that Ruyle's work leaves us with no easy answers and no simple solutions to get beyond division. Everyone has their say and then some, and everyone speaks from real, lived experience. Vital and artfully crafted as well as very timely.
