“ Challenging, though-provoking, and disturbing, "Rattler" takes an incisive look at a rape culture narrative we often miss: The mothers of the perpetrators. Jen's journey in realizing the darkness her Golden Boy child is capable of is compelling, and her character is complex and well-drawn. However, what really puts the audience between sympathy and disgust is the other women Jen meets in the play, who extol the virtues of the men in their lives regardless of their crimes. "Rattler" may make you uncomfortable, but it will also make you rethink a necessary conversation America has been having. ”

“ What a delightfully amusing and touching short play! In providing a hilarious set-up (a library acting more like a bar), Gill explores the way literature (and a good, stiff drink) can effect us in times of struggle. Breezy and dialogue ensues that the play moves at a fast clip. ”

“ Rosenberg provides a frighteningly relevant scenario, but her play effortlessly breathes with life and humanity. Rosenberg examines a basic part of women's biology with care and compassion and flexibility, allowing women of all ages and gender identities a say in the conversation. She also breathes so much life into her characters and their relationships and their dialogue that the play never feels didactic. Challenging yet accessible, this is an important play for everyone to see. PLEASE read this play! ”

“ This fantastically theatrical, unabashedly queer, and epic play is bold in every sense of the word. In this condemnation of gay conversion therapy, J. Julian Christopher takes elements from classical queer theatre such as Mart Crowley's "The Boys in the Band" and updates/subverts the types found in plays such as that to explore gender identity, masculinity, mythology, colonialism, and homophobia, among other themes. He executes this in a way that may be shocking, but is also thought-provoking and magical. This is a play that gives us hope for a better world, where self-love will rule all. Read this play! ”
