  • Nora Louise Syran: THIS COW AND THAT TROMBONE

    So mooooving!!!! Loved it. Thank you, Mr Martin. "So what does a herd need with a dairy cow who doesn’t give milk?" I love this short tale of self discovery. Bravery to dare to dream. I was clapping along with Suzie and want to give Beau a great big hug for his encouragement.

  • Adam Richter: THIS COW AND THAT TROMBONE

    A charming, life-affirming and powerful statement on the role of art in our lives. I was enthralled by Steve's compelling and empathetic portrayals of these three magnificent creatures, especially Suzie, who knows there's more to life than grass. Bravo, playwright!

  • Emily McClain: THIS COW AND THAT TROMBONE

    What a gorgeous love letter to the power of creative expression! Read this play and be as delighted as I am by Steve Martin's ability to distill the complexity of human experience into an "udderly" charming play (HA! Cow puns!). The relationship between the characters is dynamic and completely relatable, and this would be an amazing addition to a ten minute play festival!

    There are few playwrights dead or living that can capture the oft forgotten, but innate joy and jubilance of being alive. Or so eloquently demonstrate the vital human need to create. Mr. Martin is a goddamned wonder. Not only has he penned an incredibly relatable short comedy about the side effects of living in a society that pushes its own values and ideas of worth on its members, but it has cows. COWS! The things quarter-pounders are made of! It also has more that I will not spoil. This is a beautiful, beautiful play, and an ode to life.
