A beautifully structured one-act that would be very moving to see performed. I love the timelessness and ungroundedness of it, and yet we are firmly situated in the Warsaw ghetto in the center and then Senese-Grossberg lets the play move back to its timelessness, and I could feel how universal the play could be, how it ties us to any 2 girls in love for the first time caught amidst evil forces at work to destroy them, so relevant today.

A wonderfully complex situation, real-to-life, 3 dimensional characters, and great moment to moment storytelling that evokes an entire world. The humor lightens a hugely awkward situation, and yet Cameron understands how to allow for the depth of the humanity on display here, so that the big events of this play landed with me, and I had room to feel them. I also love that it's a play with a trans/nonbinary character that isn't only about that. A rich, moving piece!

The voice! The story! What a wonderful and wild ride! Spatsy Klotz and her whole neighborhood and their history on display here in such complexity, there should be more, but I'll take it. Fabulous language that creates such a vivid character! So specific and filled with tension beginning to end. Brilliant!

A stunningly powerful and theatrical metaphor of genderqueer life, adaptation, being misunderstood, time, and evolution. Beautiful. A poetic dream full of hope. It will be gorgeous onstage and funny and heartbreaking and uplifting.

This is a hard play for me, and that's what makes it so powerful and necessary. As an autistic person diagnosed late in life (almost 56) it's a conversation I've had often, and it hurts my heart to see it so wonderfully represented on the page in a way that is very real, relatable even if you're not autistic, and funny - yeah, it's gonna play funny (haha funny) and I think that's fabulous because that's how playwrights get audiences to learn stuff, through humor and the open-heartedness that laughter brings. Thank you, Dave, for this courageous play!

Here is a stunningly theatrical play! Barbot makes the history of and the ongoing fight for Puerto Rican independence so alive and palpably necessary while deconstructing stereotypes to provoke both hilarity and pathos in well-apportioned doses. Barbot writes to stir our emotions with fabulous roles for actors. He succeeds beautifully with this gorgeous work of art. A privilege to see or read.

I heard this on Ugly Radio. It's a great exploration of a ghost story/family drama with super atmospheric elements and the feeling that so much is happening underneath. The characters feel completely real which is not always the case with a ghost. Well done!

Romeo & Her Sister is exciting and super-theatrical! I was thrilled by the story and the language and love-love-love how Blevins brings history, lesbians, and Shakespeare together to entertain and inspire us all! The pacing works beautifully. The sheer thrill of the drama, and how the sisters are sisterly instead of sinister - so charming, I am smitten!

Fabulous romp of a comedy about a teen's coming of age that warms my heart! Bilingual and specific and yet so universal in its specificity! It will be hilarious onstage. Menstrual plays are as necessary as tampons! I hope it gets produced soon and often!

We need this play now! Funny and very well-written. Fascism is no joke, but this dark comedy can help us manage the terror we're up against with unrelenting antics and fast-paced theatrics. Watch out, many curves ahead!
