I love how this play didn't go in the direction I expected. This is a story of grown up friendship and adjusting through life changes. And sometimes the biggest grown up in the room is the youngest person in the room. Just a nice story of connections and positivity. Also, a couple of great drink recipes to boot!

The best comics always have the hardest pasts (presents?) to work through. Comedy is Tragedy + Time. I've always hated math, though. This is a great showcase for two actors. The levels they can play through this piece are just wonderful. Great characters!

This fast paced (or maybe it's just normal paced?) piece is just brimming with intelligent jokes! If you have ever had questions on how time travel can ACTUALLY work, this play may answer them...next week. Until then, you will be laughing and enjoying the wacky jumps through time, humor and logic, all without ever leaving your seat!

This play is calendar pages, shuffling back and forth until they crumple together. Showing the history of one parcel of Canadian land with great reverence, but also asking it to be allowed to be reborn while its past is treated with respect. The way the different times and stories meld together, in and out of time, like a dream is quite engaging. This would be a fun challenge to design and direct with lots of freedom to be creative.

This is dark. And heartbreaking. And leaves you feeling a little empty. Because there really isn't any coming back from the events we survive together as witnesses to these 7 connected stories. Luke is basically the living embodiment of "Don't Say Gay." He's not executing anyone. But he is definitely cutting them off from survival. By just walking away and leaving these children trapped. Alone with their feelings and nothing else. They don't exist to him because he doesn't think they should exist. His confidence in that is absolutely terrifying to witness. This should be produced RIGHT NOW!

"There is no best. The best is gone." This line will stick with me. There are no easy answers in this play about parenting in less than ideal situations. It will leave audiences uncomfortable and thinking hard. Is it nature? Is it nurture? Is it a little of both? What punishment is enough for the ultimate crime. A very tough piece. A very important story.

Oh wow. This is such a snapshot of the moment when 3 young friends become 3 grown friends. They begin in the greatest symbol of young freedom, the treehouse. And now the treehouse will never be the same. Just a sweet and sad story of how friendships can grow and change.

Ruyle ramps up the tension, then allows us to relax just long enough to ramp up the tension again. This whole play keeps you uncomfortable in all the right ways. We shouldn't be comfortable with these situations! Storms of weather. Storms of social constructs. There were tears in my eyes by the final scene. Nothing is wrapped up in a pretty bow, but this play is truly a gift.

Yes! Thank you! Festival creators, please read this…and consider producing it, even if it has been produced before. This makes so much sense!

This was a fun and sweet play. The characters have very distinct voices and would be a blast to play. And what a great name for a cat!!!
