Had the joy and honor of seeing this opening night at the Unicorn on 1.25.2020. This is a wonderful, wild play full of tons of surprises. A perfect commentary on society today and how far we go to be in control, and how we deem others as ‘undesirable.’ There’s nothing else like it. Read it and produce it everywhere!!

I adore this play. The characters are snappy and original, the language and dialogue is fresh, and the story is sharp. Becca Blackmore has a talent of telling us an allegory without beating a dead horse - Becca has given us something new and unexpected. I can't recommend this one enough.

Wow. This starts on a bang and doesn't let up. Tom Stewart gets the language of the original stories and blends us a newly told adventure. I think a cast and crew would have a lot of fun with this - it can be realized with a simple, ever changing set. Beautifully rendered and creatively done. Bravo!

My only question is why hasn't this been produced further? I am a Sherlock Holmes junkie and any SH fan will love this work. Imaginative, sharp, and well done, putting the Irregulars on center stage. I absolutely loved this and Reginald Edmund is a fantastic dialogue writer. I won't spoil it, but the sharp and snappy ending - you won't be disappointed!

This play is a gem and a darling to watch. Extremely fun for actors to just take it and run with it. This is one of my favorites from John. His imagination and his sharp writing is something to behold. I and many others said we would love to see this as a larger piece - this is a zany world we would love to hang around in for a while. Bravo and well-done!

This is a beautiful work that I would enjoy seeing fully realized. The language is haunting and characters are very original. Extremely poetic in its presentation as it asks tough questions.

This play is beautiful in its poetic language and its unflinching look at a white woman and a black woman placed as sisters, taking them through their lives. The authors have created a piece that causes us to consider our nation and its heritage rooted in slavery, and women’s place in it. A wonderful blending of two playwrights and their writing to create something exceptional. A piece that will stay with the audience after it’s finished.

There is so much symbolism and layers to unpack with the witches, what food represents, how women are kept from work and thus starved, and how women must be each other's saviors. Gorgeous with wonderful roles for women in it. There is a lot of potential for creativity in the artistic production of the work. Stephanie has, once again, made something incredibly unique and rich, both timeless in its feel but timely in theme.

What a beautiful play. Adam has taken a moment between a married couple nearing the end of the husband’s life and expertly captured the raw emotion and circular conversation of someone with dementia/memory issues. The actors for this will find a lot of subtext and underlying emotion to work with in between the lines. This one will stay with me for a long time.

I'm so glad John Bavoso was covered by Unknown Playwrights. He has got a sharp, snappy sense of humor and is able to deliver some fantastic lines. I was crying - there are so many amazing one-liners in just 8 pages. And even though it's a comedy, there is such a big commentary on so many other things, including religion and relationships. This is a writer everyone needs to know.
