Somehow a play that tackles themes of grooming and sexual violence made me laugh out loud as I read it. This play perfectly balances humor and grief, pain and laughter. As a graduate of a college theatre department, I saw myself and a lot of my friends in Riley and Cheyenne, which brought a comforting sense of nostalgia to the piece that is ultimately shattered (rightly) by the reality of sexual trauma. Wacky and heartbreaking, hilarious and absolutely necessary. Much <3 to Courtney Taylor.
