“ "Intestate" is an incredibly moving, powerful monologue. All the related frustrations of the past year, told quite early in the pandemic, are here - the inequities in who gets access to patient information, the ignorance of individuals who contributed to the pandemic, and the frustrating state of quarantine when one's loved ones are ill. The ending is tragic. Beautiful piece. ”

“ Oh, the ego of an actor. That grandiosity we sometimes see strutting its hour upon the stage is brilliantly spoofed in this short play. Quite the fun piece! ”

“ This is a great piece for two younger actors. The characters are perfectly created, showing both the humor of this age group and the conflicts of identity that come with deciding how we define family. The setting of a hotel room is an effective choice for what may be a temporary bond between these two relative strangers. ”

“ I had the pleasure of seeing this play produced by The Forge Theater Lab. This is a hilarious look at the dating world and the experiences that have shaped what we bring to the relationship table. The concept of meeting to sign a relationship contract upon first meeting highlights the absurd expectations that are often pressured upon individuals who are still single. It is a great piece for all actors involved and represents well rounded personal histories. Darling's humor is witty and acerbic and says what we often censor ourselves from saying. A real gem. ”
