  • Robert Weibezahl: Billy and the ADHD by Mark Mulkerin
    “

    A wholly original, extremely clever, and deeply heartfelt portrait of a teen coping with the ways ADHD has shaped him and continues to dictate his life. This ten-minute blend of comedy and angst is the best kind of instructive play: it never feels like it is lecturing even as it is informing and advocating. Billy speaks to and for the legions of "different" kids and all those who love them.

    A moving portrait of one young man's life with ADHD and its accompanying anxiety and sadness. The three aspects of his experience are vividly drawn and Billy himself is a most sympathetic character. The ending shifts perspective in a most heartening way. Go Billy!

    Gorgeous, powerful play about a teenager with ADHD struggling to find love, acceptance, and understanding. Mark began this highly inventive play in my class, and I am beaming with pride that I was part of this journey. This play definitely needs to be produced widely.

    A fantastically creative and heart-tugging play about being a teenager, being in the outliers of society, and ADHD. Lovely twist at the end. Playwright Mark Mulkerin has crafted a piece that is universal in scope yet beautifully specific to Billy. The imaginative structure to the play only adds to the delight. Read and produce immediately!
