“ I had the privilege of watching Lisa develop this play in our Propulsion Lab writers group. . Lisa gives it her unique spin, set partially in the world of organic farming and a steakhouse. It is a funny, quirky, and skilled adaptation of the Persephone myth ”

“ DUCK is a wonderful play. The world Jonathan builds is immediately compelling, and he deftly blends pop culture "nerd" tropes with a laser sharp examination of abuse and bigotry. The play never verges into maudlin, as his well timed humor frequently pulls the play from the dark side and brings much needed levity. It's been my privilege to watch this play develop over the past year. ”

“ I was fortunate enough to be the MFA program at Hunter with Dan when he wrote this play. It is a moving, often whimsical, and heartbreaking examination of grief, fantasy, family, and how we move on when moving on feels impossible. Also: guillotines! ”

“ This was the first David Hilder play I read, and it has all the hallmarks I've come to know from his writing: strong female characters, a wicked sense of humor with impeccable comic timing, emotional resonance, and a sense of something being slightly "off". It is dystopian, yet familiar, which adds to the sense of dread and eeriness that has a very satisfying payoff in the end. ”
