“ A tender, engaging play about love and family: the mistakes we make, the fear that holds us back, the surprising ways we find to move forward. Beautiful dialogue and five quirky characters fill the page and the stage. ”

“ An absolutely chilling tale deftly told via characters who ring true to the era. Knowing this story is based on true events sadly underscores its relevance to the socio-political climate of today. Baker is a master at dialogue that sets each character apart and yet brings them together in a sense of time and place. I felt the fear and the power of each moment just reading the play. Imagine what could happen when this excellent work is fully staged. ”

“ A beautifully constructed play, that confronts the climate crisis head on as it underscores the fallibility of the humans who try to save this precious planet. The characters are wonderfully complex, and through them Gibson does not present any easy answers, but offers conflict that is as much internal as external. This play leaves an uncomfortable question on the table: must the child sacrifice the parent to the cause? ”

“ Beautifully complex play, with numerous theatrical elements. There is a sense of musicality that is both purposeful and poetic. Significant action in the story is told without the use of the spoken word, as well as clear and specific use of dialogue. Intriguing, mysterious characters and plot held my attention throughout. I was fortunate to see a reading at the Valdez Theatre Conference, and now would love to see this thoughtful play fully staged. ”
