Give Me My Flowers

by Deana Velandra

Claire and Molly were inseparable as kids. They grew up in dance together, and formed their identities as best friends and as ballerinas. Now, Claire has asked Molly to meet up with her again after not speaking to one another for the past decade. Partly told through the art of ballet, this is a play about female friendship, estrangement, loss, identity, and love.

    A wonderful insight into ambition and living with dreams out of reach. Velandra's characters are both immediately clear to the audience and full of unseen complexity. Their relationship and the way the play develops them create an excellent engine to power this tightly-focused, character-first whip-smart script.
