“ I was fortunate to see a reading of this play at the Pittsburgh Public Theatre and found it to be a rich, moving, and intimate portrait of grieving family. I was especially struck by the powerful discussion of active shooter drills and the effect they have on the young people participating in them. This is a play that speaks to the present moment in a way that feels both personal and profound. I can't wait to see it fully produced! ”

“ I intended to just start this play, and ended up whipping through the whole thing in one sitting because it has such an intense forward movement to it! This is a story about processing traumatic events but it's also a nuanced and compelling love story. With flexible casting and meaty roles, this is an excellent choice for college students. ”

“ I am so impressed by the elegant way this play is structured to allow us into such intimate and subtly heartbreaking moments on stage. It feels effortless and dreamlike, but is so expertly done. Gibson explores the feeling of loneliness in a crowd here with such nuance and sensitivity. I was very drawn to the way this play makes you feel the anxiety of being trapped at a party where you don't know anyone, but also presents these beautiful opportunities for escape through connection and honesty between the characters. An unusually delicate and aching piece of theatre. ”

“ A delightful and poignant window into the lives of five very different women and their experiences of motherhood. Watching these women navigate new friendships while on the cusp of huge personal change is a touching and profound theatrical experience. ”
