Recommendations of Ashes, Indiana

  • Maximillian Gill: Ashes, Indiana

    A marvelous and tight piece that builds up dread slowly and never lets up. I love the anthology quality, as if we're sitting around a campfire hearing variants of the same legend. The alternate ending conceit is a true coup de theatre, and I would be very curious to see how an audience locked in slowly under this play's spell ends up reacting.

    Chilling and gripping, "Ashes, Indiana" carries all the weight of a decades-old folktale, constructed for a modern audience. With haunting language and a characters that feel too real for comfort, Radtke has crafted a play that'll chill spines for years to come. I yearn for more pieces like this!

  • Julie Grixlen: Ashes, Indiana

    An excellent tale that conjures up the same praise worthy of Gothic literature. Neil Radtke's use of vignettes adds to the complexity of the piece and keeps the audience intrigued. Ashes, Indiana is well worth the read. How marvelous to have a new ghost story!

  • Matthew Moore: Ashes, Indiana

    A fascinating concept makes for a swift read and what I imagine would be a perfect evening of October theater. I think the narration is particularly strong, which is saying something, because I normally detest when plays have narrators. The lyricism in the language really shines, and I love the construction for alternate endings.
