“ First off, the song behind this play is just kick ass, so that already bodes well. But the premise of this satirical play works so well because, in this post-pandemic world, things feel more out of whack (and wacky) than ever. Lam nails both the comedy and the horror in a succinct play that strikes the heart…zombies included. ”

“ I'm not one for monologues, in general; I find they are often devoid of any real character or plot development from the beginning to the end, and tend to skew more towards diary entries.

This play, though -- and it is most definitely a play with one person -- does what only the best pieces of writing do: makes every word have a purpose. Told in Carbajal's specific style -- sparse, searing, strangely heartbreaking yet uplifting -- it is a song in itself.

If there was one monologue I'd want to read before I die, this would be it. ”

“ What a hoot! Just when you thought the trope of cavemen had been beaten to death with a club by that insurance company, here comes Armstrong's take on the invention of the wheel. The original odd couple, Ugg and Francis are the most memorable Neanderthals you will see on a stage, thanks to Armstrong's dexterity at humor and heart. ”

“ This play exemplifies my favorite kind of work: It's a "Black Mirror"-esque moral quandary that feels like it could one day be all too real in this ever-problematic world we live in. You are at first won over by the comical setup, but as the story unfolds, you find yourself asking what you would do faced with such a dilemma. McLindon once again keeps the action fast-paced but leaves much to think about when all is said and done. ”
