A riff and critique on Shakespeare and his female characters, cleverly told with figments. Love Shakespeare’s line regarding his character breakdown, “826, to be exact, are men, while 155 are women played by men. (explains) I had an intern last year.” A smart play that has breaks of humor.

It is fun to follow this character’s train of thought and where her emotions lie.

Highly recommend! Powles explores deep concepts like intimacy, language, consent, and sex. The structure and language in this monologue are something to admire.

Nice tension leading to a cringe-y, yet perfect, ending!

Rapid conversation twists and turns as these characters speed down a dark rabbit hole. Dealing with gender, race, sex and violence this script leaves you with a lot to think about.

Cute and funny! I feel this woman’s pain. It’s like the personification of when a song gets stuck in your head and you can’t fall asleep. Love the idea of scent/funk on stage.

Clear minds, minds made up, things remembered - a fascinating look into the minds of two liquid talking characters. Speaking of what’s real and what’s in your mind, I love the line, “Having never heard your voice or seen your face, it’s safe to say that you don’t really exist to him.”

Very funny! I enjoyed getting a look into Glenda's head as she tries to figure out herself. And her reasonings are great!

Wow! A lot about humanity packed into one minute. Fun to think about how to stage.

Right from the start I felt enveloped in this fairytale world. Well done!
