One of our jobs as playwrights is to create an atmosphere of curiosity that allows for well-timed backstory. Monica Cross pulls this off expertly - with a wonderful premise and a sci-fi noir buildup that makes welcome a mini history of the moons orbiting Mythos IV. The back and forth between two former childhood friends in adversarial adult roles is touching and entertaining. THE CASE OF THE STOLEN MOON serves up an outer-worldly take on the classic detective story dynamic of idealism vs. cynicism. This insightful and innovative short makes me want to read more from this writer. Cool stuff. ”
