    This is one of the most ambitious, far-reaching ten-minute plays I've ever read.

    This play is on fire. The script narratively and structurally innovative, and the story is built around under-represented voices, and the play feels more fresh than anything I've read in a long while.

    I was so excited to be able to see The Welders' world premiere of this exciting new play, which hits hard and pulls no punches. GREAT roles for women, too.

    This is the sort of play that makes your heart larger. It's beautiful and timeless and poetic and brilliant.

    This play broke me open and made my whole heart come tumbling out. Beautiful, epic, poetic, hugely imaginative, and purely soulful. I fell in love.

    I couldn't like this play any more. Its mechanism works on all scales: from the personal to the astronomical. It's got a big vision (as does its author) and a grounded heart. It deserves to be both produced and seen.

    A mighty, imaginative play that deserves a great deal of attention from a playwright with a sharp, smart, passionate voice.
  • How We Got On: a breakbeat play

    The Humana production of this play sung to me directly: as if the play had been made for my own benefit. But it's much bigger than one person: it speaks, I think, to an entire generation. If more plays like this appeared on American stages, we'd have a new audience base in short order: one hungry for stories that are both excellent AND relevant.

    Delightful and deeply intelligent writing with tremendous range and ambition. I'm very glad to have caught the world premiere of this play in DC.

    Such a beautiful story: one that enlarges on the lives of a few captivating characters to become something epic and ambitious.
