It was a joy to read this script. Loved Tristan’s free association moment and when Tristan and Alma share intense cell phone moments. A great group of characters tangled in love connections and the search for clout.

George and Mary compliment each other beautifully in their contrasts. I adore the adding machine/piano scene. Beautiful, beautiful language like, “Oh… Under the memories, behind the hope, around the corners of the my heart and in the hems of my skirts… the park, too.” I would love to see George testing his shadow. Oh my god, the end… my heart swelled. I love this play!

Love the myth and the music! Great details like the fly attracted to the lightbulb analogy to Robert coming back to Mississippi.

Strong and theatrical, ending in triumph.

Love the use of games, music and anachronism. An exciting and smart pirate story that examines love and gender expression.

The ad for a drummer is golden. The audition looming is great tension. I love how Maribel “really opens up over the intercom.” Alan’s imagination is beautiful. Harley and Texas Jane have a great love.

I love the idea of something you thought was fanciful as a kid being confirmed as an adult! Fun conversation about the after life.

A dive into two characters that care for each other but can’t deliver in the moment, no matter how much they want to.

I greatly admire the pace and word choice in this play. “Light them up with my attention” is a beautiful line/moment/feeling. I appreciate the details like the 4.48 reference. The producer’s monologues are sharp and Stan and Evelyn’s stories are enthralling.

Urith has a clear and funny line of morality and in this monologue begs you not to cross it.
