The Melvyn Invention is a total delight to read! Its high-concept premise is immediately clear and engaging, especially for young audiences. The three characters are funny, multi-faceted, and vulnerable. They're written distinctively, but flexible enough for countless actors to step into the roles and make them their own. What I especially like is how the play’s sci-fi magic is portable. Wherever it travels, it will resonate with a wide range of communities.
