Life is hardest when our demons are family. Guilt, regret, lasting memories of things one wishes they've somehow done better, but probably couldn't have. Donnelly has crafted a hard episode, but a strong one with wonderful major parts for two women. Part of me wanted more, much more of their story, but on reflection, this was more than plenty. It may not be the most uplifting of shorts, but it deserves a place at seasonal festivals.

This would be a tough play to sit and watch. So may people seeking answers as they've been told to (therapy!!!), yet so few have been encouraged to seek them for the right reasons. This is a piece that should be done in high schools and colleges; it's message is critical.

A very fun piece! Building on the absurdity of collectibles and adding a large dose of greed and gullibility, this short play delivers a hilarious sucker punch.

I absolutely love Marcie and Patty. And Schroeder. And Sally! What a series of disasters--right before a wedding. This would be outrageous fun to play for four actors who love romps. And I would *love* to direct it!

Very authentic dialogue, especially for a pair of teenage boys. A heartfelt story as well, that made me remember painfully what it was like to not know how to express oneself. I truly felt for both of these characters; teenage years are absolute hell and this is one reason why.

I hate auditions. HATE auditions. I know exactly how this person feels, and this would be a great moment to walk in, blow the joint down, and then...walk off like you have all damn day.

Sure, and it's a lovely grand moment for a lost Yank traveler ho mayhap just find he's bound for more than he wanted. A short but heartwarmin' piece of life, and maybe a bit of magic as well.

For those of us who've learned that standing in the rain is not uncomfortable, but is quite amazing once you're fully and completely drenched, I totally get Lara, as I do Chet. A wonderful moment in time, full of laughter, push-and-pull, and a flash-in-the-moment of tragedy before their journey continues. Great piece for two eager actors.

One Joey is the voice of thousands who were traumatically victimized. His pain weaves in and out of sync with those who intellectually...academically rationalize what has happened to children. This is a hard play to read and will be a very difficult one to perform, but it's a play that *should* be performed. A highly potent ten minutes.

A great piece for two women to play; full of shock, realization, determination, and courage. It moves fluidly and the characters are well-paced and wholly natural.
