You Before Me by

“
This is a fine mother-daughter play. YOU BEFORE ME can be read without knowledge of the Demeter - Persephone - Hades myth. But refreshing my memory of the mythical antecedents gave added depth to the tension between Seph and Deme. I love it that Seph and her husband are realtors in Florida and that Seph has come into her own - so well that she can give just the right loving attention (nourishment) to her mother. Samantha Marchant has authored a very warm and heartfelt play for every season. ”
