“ What a clever play! I adore the language play and pithy humor Hoke volleys around — She makes it look easy! This would be great fun for a wide range of audiences and players, from teens to adults — in performance or a staged reading. It has a driving rhythm that draws you in, and an engaging, hilarious tension. It's the Crossword Puzzle/Sudoko Smackdown we puzzle people needed in our lives! Thank you, Ms. Hoke! ”

“ I gulped this play! What a wonderful reflection on a moment in history - with depth and contemporary resonance. Four incredible parts for young actors -- rarely has there been a role like Mary! I'm stunned. Haas builds beautiful layers of meaning into Mary's world, exploring love, family, grief and ultimate transcendence, in fewer than 50 pages. If only plays performed by and for children could be this emotionally complex, this inventive and forthcoming. Immediately theatrical, with a perfect balance of intelligence and heart, this play delivers. Just - wow. Thank you! ”

“ This play is just lovely. The rhythm of the language — A lilting, inviting cadence — belies the tension and story development writer Farr packs into just ten pages. Atmospheric, historical, yet relevant and connected to the present — I care so deeply for this little trio I only just met. ”

“ I had the opportunity to read/hear this play through Playwright Center's Member Open Play. It reads aloud so easily — Warm and inviting — With big action that snowballs hysterically. At the center are Marge and Mavis — two delightful lead roles for women of an older generation. So refreshing! Writer Smith makes dialogue look easy in this lilting comedy stocked with compelling, sympathetic characters. Fun, too, to see a nostalgic small-town period piece set in recent era — The 1980's. This would be a fun show for a regional or community theater. ”
