←Recommendations of Quinlyn Can Paint

Oh, families and the way they shape our selves and our lives! Barr wisely lets the sisters do the talking, in the process revealing more about themselves and their relationships with one another than an interviewer ever could, and perhaps more than they themselves intend. Love, art and the creative spirit are the glue that hold their meandering narratives together, letting the characters shine through vividly.

Monologue plays can be tricky, but Barr uses the form extremely well. Some of my favorite moments were when the sisters would coincidentally respond to each other, or when one would affirm or contradict what another one said. As an oldest sister of three myself, and as an artist who does not currently make a living that way, this play definitely hit home more than once.

A fascinating play about art, sisterhood and one's legacy. Loved the fact that this play features a trans character that isn't defined by her trauma or coming out. Some great monologues in here for anyone looking.

An intelligent, poignant, and at times hilarious exploration of art, fame, and sisterhood. Barr really shows off their talent for rich and likable (even in their moments of un-likability) characters, creating three incredibly exciting opportunities for the actors playing Quinlyn, Gabby, and Olive.

An incredible play from an incredible playwright! Barr reckons with an artist's (and a human's) greatest struggles in this taut meditation on creation. A stunning theatrical achievement that will keep an audience engaged long after the curtain goes down.
