“ A partner to the other "One Job Thou Hadst," this one looks at the friar who missed telling Romeo about Juliet's *pretend* death. Haunted by this line: "A scurvy youth, word was/He'd even killed a man." The voice of Friar Giovanni is excellent (although I would suggest that the anachronistic spellings are sometimes unnecessary). Regardless, Hansen's control of language and character is excellent. ”

“ I haven't laughed this hard in a while. Brilliant look at religion, death, and philosophy, with a joke that will forever decontextualize the name "Kevin." (Read it. Just read it. Thank me later.) ”

“ Where did Ophelia's mad scene come from? That's the crux of this short play in iambic pentameter - one of the premiere verse dramatists of our time! ”

“ What an absolutely beautiful, metatheatrical gem! Bittersweet, hopeful, mature. Pflaster reflects how art helps the artists see themselves and each other, even through the glass of letting go and starting again. ”
