I'm happy to recommend this gem of a 3-hander period piece that 29th Street Playwrights Collective just produced as a rehearsed reading because it is a compelling story with a very brave and outspoken female protagonist fighting for agency in a world where women were not given much freedom. The play has some beautifully theatrical moments, humor, and tension between the characters. I also enjoy the tension Rice provides that adds to my anticipation for what will happen.

A moving story with strong female characters who I love, and then the moments of theatricality keep me enthralled - a play I'll always remember.

This warm-hearted, touching play works on multiple levels - it could be compared favorably to Stoppard, and yet one doesn't need to work hard to enjoy it. It is very visual, and I love so many things about it, especially the way Suilebhan creates the worlds and how they provoke so many visceral responses!

Very funny and appropriately awkward piece about fascinating characters who speak volumes with subtext and silences. Well done!

Wonderfully well written drama with humor and a cast of unforgettable characters, great acting opportunities. Very moving!

What a sweet, romantic play! The characters are made for each other, and I love the drenched man. It is inventive and adorable.

What a marvelous creation! I love this play! It is gloriously well-written, hilarious, with such style and grace and smarts and theatricality! Love love love this magnificent story of lust and curiosity and desire and sex and love and the Transcendentalists and the 19th Century and so this very minute and forever - a play for the ages. It's also a brilliantly delightful feminist interpretation of the past with strong roles for women, huzzah!

So much fun, it is almost hard to watch! Very funny piece that feels super-true today!

Beautiful play for 3 actors in a love triangle where there are no easy answers and no easy moments, everything is earned. A tight, dramatic piece that looks at all kinds of duties we have - to our kids, to our loves, to our selves.

Donna Hoke has created a very smart, fast-paced, funny play that will certainly add to the conversation about our current rape culture. More than that, the play lands with me by sincerely addressing the significant real life problems involved (that I can't disclose or I would spoil it) grounding this fantastic play in female reality that takes the male characters some time to discover and understand. Filled with great visuals and design elements that deepen the dramatic metaphor!
