←Recommendations of Ruins

This haunting play documents the cognitive dissonance and temporal weirdness of leaving home abruptly, and under unthinkable circumstances. Life as a refugee and life in a war zone go head-to-head. Sasha's character is indignant, empathetic, and brutal with both versions of herself as she struggles to resolve her identity into one.

This unusual and searing short play explores the inner and outer worlds of a young woman during a war. Complex, mysterious, haunting. Great roles for two young women. Highly recommended.

Very powerful short play written about the realities of war and from an unusual perspective. Sasha Serena writes not just about the destruction of Eugenia's home, but the destruction of her former self. In the setting of her ruined bedroom, Eugenia now an exile, confronts her younger self, and the conflict she feels at leaving her beloved home, in order to stay alive. Haunting. And necessary.

This is a play that everyone should read about a situation that no one should ever have to experience. Sasha Sereda’s haunting tale beautifully captures the emotional toll of war on the young and innocent. Thank you for sharing this important story.

Loved this play about going home after all you knew of home has been destroyed. Excellent two-hander.

This immensely powerful short play is overwhelming, sad, sweet and endearing. Mourning lost innocence, lost identity and struggling to cope with a war that the rest of the world seems to barely scroll by, Eugenia teaches us the depth of pain this war has caused. Congrats to this young playwright and best of luck navigating these waters.
