“ Warnings of a dystopian not-so-distant future, complete with social media police, are cleverly woven into this dark and very funny play. The wonderful bantering dialogue carries us right into this changed world, revealing just enough to keep us intrigued. Beautifully crafted, this little gem belongs on stage. ”

“ Four explicitly drawn, complicated characters drive this sad, funny, powerful play. With dark humor the story of the deluded, grieving parents unfolds, in contrast to that of the dead woman’s troubled sister and the former fiancé. At times I cringed right through the laughter. I was fortunate to see the superb reading of Shrines at the Valdez Theatre Conference. Beautiful work. ”

“ Greg Romero’s writing does not stay within the bounds of earth or sky or imagination. In this very short, yet remarkably powerful play, the trauma of sexual abuse is given a depth and range worthy of its immeasurable impact. I witnessed the reading at the Valdez Theatre Conference and the intense effect it had on the audience. I am still stunned. ”

“ One of a cycle of plays by Nicholas Walker Herbert, Remnants is set in a prison camp in a future dystopian world. A story of choices and the price of loyalty, the play hinges on the convoluted, heightened relationships of desperate prisoners planning an escape. While secrecy and trust are vital to the success of the plan, who can really be trusted? An exploration of the ways humanity prevails - or does not - under the most dire of circumstances. An intensely thought-provoking drama. ”
