One of the most fun, theatrical plays ever! A feast of language and physical ferocity! I adored this play when I first heard it years back, and I enjoy it today reading it after a long time. It is just as fresh and poignant as ever!

A story for our time! Lady Capulet takes us back to before R&J to the beginning of the feud and provides the most wonderful story of a young lady, Rose, from the country brought to the big city of Verona for her brother's marriage and the trouble she gets into and has to get herself out of. . . Rose is a wonderful character to root for, living by her own wits. Her journey illuminates all that Juliet has to put up with later on. The play is a triumph! In rep with R&J or on its own!

Hard-hitting, fascinating look at the news and the people who are embroiled in making the news and shaping the news for our country and politics. Could not be more timely even though it's not new. This is a play to take another look at.

Love this short play - it is very visual and conceptual - and it plays beautifully! So much fun for actors! Willett has a mind that works in many directions at once. Fascinating and heartbreaking when you realize what is going on.

This play goes to the heart of traumatic family life in a beautiful, darkly comic, sculpted way. I love Song's facility with language, image and composition. She writes gorgeously for characters with massive subtext. This is probably one of the closest theatrical experiences I've had reflecting my own family life. And perhaps this means I project when I say that Family feels universal, but the play is so alive and open to a multiplicity of interpretations and avenues of connection, I challenge others to see if it feels universal to them.

Powerful play that makes us uncomfortable in all the right ways! We get so many subtle signals about who this family is and how hard it is for the mother to make this decision, and then Minigan goes one step further - I'm not giving it away - an eventful piece! Well done.

The language in this play stands out and makes it easy to recommend. This moving story of a father daughter relationship is one of the strongest plays about war I've ever read.

This play is so much fun! I saw a reading, and it is a true tour-de-force opportunity for any female actor playing Stella who was larger-than-life in life and is imagined here as big as she was - a tower of power full of drama and theatricality! It speaks to the power of theatre in a beautiful way that lifts us all up!

This is so much fun! I love the characters and the set-up, and it really moves me! I mean, it's a marvelous comedy, and yet I found myself full of longing and nostalgia and wonder at the beauty of it all. The way she shows us so much about life itself, what Molly went through, what the extras had to contend with, life then - and of course relating it all to life today, and so little has changed. Wonderfully imagined!

I love this play and how theatrical it is - how it takes what could be a very static situation (a long road trip) - and turns it into a way to understand the lengths we have to go to to take care of ourselves today. I love the complexity of the choices these characters face. I would love to see this staged!
