Best of Honor by Ricardo Soltero-Brown
7 Dec. 2023
“
Soltero-Brown’s darkly comic, super-smart, wholly original play about one very complicated wedding-day is a marvelous blend of theatricality and humor, as four characters who matter deeply to each other can’t quite figure out how to move past the problems each sees, including an obsession with current politics. The use of the wedding-officiator is also wonderfully fresh and boundary-pushing as well as very funny. Soltero-Brown has a great gift for mining the pains and absurdities of life and love with wit, compassion, and truth, in dialogue that offers much to collaborators. This is a playwright to watch. ”
