This play is the bomb! Both quick and quick-witted, it's an easy one for actors get and run with, and is sure to be the hit of your ten-minute play festival!

I love the poetic license Sampson takes in crafting the story and in delivering it. A great send-up on the classic fairy tale with lots of laughs!

I didn't expect this play to go where it did, but appreciated this exploration of grief, the unyielding human need for explanation and reason, when, in truth, there isn't any. Beautifully done.

We jaded fliers forget what it can be like for someone who hasn't yet accepted the relative "safety" of flying. "Flight Path" is a reminder to listen--and not just on airplanes--even when we want nothing more than solitude, because you never know when someone needs to be heard.

The un-holiday holiday play. A dark and delightful antithesis to the usual more sentimental offerings.

What I love about this is that my kids always think I'm just being a parent. They don't get that I was their age or understand that every admonishment or warning comes back with wisdom borne of experience. What I hate is that got so sucked in to that mentality that I didn't see the ending coming and I should have. Good job!

Deeply etched characters in a Rust Belt City--something that resonates with this Buffalonian. As the characters' daily struggles unfold, this play offers a visceral understanding of how shared love for a team allows them to find hope in their existence.

What a cool, sexy, well-crafted, and intense play! I was completely drawn in, turned on, educated, and thrilled in one sitting. I've never read a play like this before. A unique voice.

People have already said so much about what this play says but I want to add that what I love most about it is what's unspoken, even down to the unsettling--yet darkly comic--end. Later, I'm going to have a pit in my stomach and realize it's because of this play.

Bravo to Patrick for writing the best kind of comedy: conscious, resonant, without frivolity, and unrelenting FUNNY. Perfectly structured and ultimately so satisfying, I hope it continues to find home after home. Highly recommend!
