    A profound work about historical queerness and religious eroticism. Gay Catholics will eat it up.

  • arroyo monfiletto: All I Wanna Do Is Be Pretty Like You

    A gripping, poignant meta-critique of objectification. The play is funny and touching, tender and loving, sarcastic and sincere. A must-read!

  • arroyo monfiletto: Three Year Summer

    I absolutely adore this play. Berryman has captured the awkwardness and joy of adolescent nerdiness without judgement or condescension. I even teared up! Because of fanfiction! What a wonderful joyous read.

  • arroyo monfiletto: HOMERIDAE

    There's so much beauty and wonder in this play I'm not even sure how to capture it in a review. It's dense and philosophical but it flies by. It's raw and restrained. It's classical and fresh! A wealth of beautiful contradictions. Anyone wondering about the future of American theater need look no further than this play.

    What a dark and complicated work. I love the density of ideas and the wonderfully suspenseful plot. A wonderful read!

  • arroyo monfiletto: SOMETHING FOR THE FISH

    I feel positively waterlogged after reading this play, and I mean that as the highest of compliments. The writing's so rich with atmosphere, the dialogue's so kinetic, and when I finished reading I felt as though I'd crossed a threshold. PLEASE give it a read.

  • arroyo monfiletto: How To Destroy An American Girl Doll

    This play gets me where I live. It's tender and raw and really approaches the awkwardness of adolescence without judgement or blame. Extra props for the wonderfully nuanced and empathetic portrayal of eating disorders. What sensational work!

    My favorite aspect of Matt's writing is the deftness with which he balances plaintive haunting imagery with absolutely hysterical humor. This play is heartbreaking and lovely, and absolutely of the time. I recommend it to anyone who's struggling with anxieties about the end of the world.

  • arroyo monfiletto: Paletas de Coco or, The Letter Unspoken or, The Christmas Eve Play

    What a sensationally vulnerable play. I can only imagine the strength (and maybe the recklessness) it must have taken to write it. Raw, bitter, sweet, wonderful. This might be my new favorite Christmas play.
