This play is wild, mysterious, and visceral. There are moments in the play that blend a sense of dangerous magic with clinical modern terminology and everything is pushed forward to a moment of chaos by the end. The final scene plays out in such an unexpected, but utterly satisfying, way. It sticks with you long after you've finished reading. It's incredibly compelling theatre! Beautiful- I cannot recommend it highly enough!

This is a really fantastic two-hander that explores a flawed but passionate relationship. I enjoyed hearing it read at the Merely Writer’s Workshop in Atlanta. Lupo has a wonderful ear for snappy dialogue. Very fun!

Food and "foodie culture" is all around us and Quinn riffs on that in so many surprising and delightful ways. His take on cooking show host Martha Marmalade and her reluctant home cook helper is completely hilarious. All of the two-person scenes have engaging dialogue and really unexpected and unique takes on familiar situations. This would be an amazing piece for directors looking to collaborate together on one evening of theatre because each scene feels different yet connected by the thread of food. Delicious!

This excerpt does an incredible job of painting two very real and completely engaging characters struggling to define themselves rather than be defined by others. Quinn creates complexity and nuance so easily- and you are definitely left with a sense that there is much more to these characters and their story and you want to know what happens. Beautifully authentic dialogue that allows actors of any age to believably slip into the awkward world of middle school students.
