Besides just being an extremely well-crafted play, this piece is one of the most timeliest plays I've read in recent years. It asks big questions and gives us characters that do noble things sometimes through less than noble means. Using a fictionalized version of a story that so few have heard of from WWII, Sobler asks to look at what our nation's place in helping the world is. A play that should be seen everywhere but especially in Red States.

The theatrical form is a perfect way to explore memory. In this play, you see people dealing with grief in various ways. Grief over an event that is never clear. We are asked to wrestle with which character to trust and whose perception of reality is the most reliable. The writer excellently uses modern technology with its capability to record history to still show how hard it is to understand the truth. An intimate play that beautifully explores global themes.

It's really hard to put my finger on what kind of play this is. It's a play about a Cuban family but a lot of it is about a family that just happens to be Cuban. It has themes that make you think it's a immigrant story or at least the effects of an immigrant's journey but not exactly. What I can say for sure is that this is a great play. The roles are so complex and a feast for actors and the dance segments fascinate me. I really hope companies grow some balls and produce this.

I was so upset I missed this play when it premiered in Philly but I have a feeling it will be produced more and all over. I beautiful play with complicated and rich roles for Latinx women. It's a great way for audiences to learn about the women who blazed the trails for women today and those that are still fighting for equality. Will make you laugh, cry and leave inspired to take down the patriarchy!!!

All I knew about this play going in was that it had something to do with gun violence. Being written by Lauren Gunderson I should have known that it'd be very different than other work I've read or seen about this topic. This play is a true tour-de-force for an actress as she has to comedically tell her story while sprinkling troubles in her life until the play comes to its dramatic conclusion. Blending a powerful character and opportunity for dynamic sound design this play shows that victims are not just statistics but flesh and blood human beings with stories.

At the end of the world, when all seem to have been destroyed, toxic masculinity will survive according to this insightful and hysterical play. Characters that seem at first to be satirical stereotypes have real depth and growth. With this play, all will laugh and men will learn.

I've read many plays about the immigrant experience but never one from a perspective like this. The way Huang tells this story through memories and ghosts is so compelling. Produce this play!!!

This play reads like a soap opera while also exploring the rights of women in Islam. Great roles for Middle Eastern women that are so different and complicated.

Definitely a play that folks will wrestle with in that way interesting theatre should. You certainly won’t agree with each character and everything they say but you need to hear them out.

This is an absolutely brilliant play!!! The way it looks at the themes of dreams, disappointment and reconciliation is unlike any other play I've ever read. Produce this everywhere!!
