“ Carli is a character who is strong yet vulnerable, and even though his boss’s actions make sense, considering what he reveals to Carli, I was surprised by the ending nonetheless, and amazed by the level of dramatic tension in such a short space of time. The final monologue is powerful. Carli is an extremely dynamic character worth rooting for. ”

“ The need for human physical touch is conveyed with unexpected emotional recall through a simple hug, as is these characters had completely forgotten what it felt like to connect in this way after only a six month isolation. The irony of seeing this play virtually must add a poignancy to this exchange that we can all relate to on some level. Seeing it in person with living, breathing actors would be a revelation. ”

“ This is a powerful monologue based on a true account of a sheriff who had the courage to do the right thing when justice was hanging in the balance. These stories need to be told, and theatre can make it feel immediate and necessary to be told, regardless of when it has taken place. Sadly, this story still has urgency. Well done, Donald. ”

“ The urgency and panic in this important monologue for our times is palpable. After reading it, It surprised me that I have not encountered many other plays about essential healthcare workers during the pandemic. I marveled at the nightmarish images of crocheted masks and a jar of pickles substituting for hand sanitizer. It is easy to forget how one year ago, nurses were struggling to work without adequate PPE, but Karen Fix Curry reminds us how horrifying these moments can be, yet tomorrow is another day to help and do one's best to save lives. A great monologue for auditions! ”
