“ Ador'd Once, Too is one of those scripts that gives an opportunity for a lot of actors to shine. It is rich with references that lovers of Twelth Night will appreciate while forging its own path. The little threads that might have been one line in Shakespeare's script have been pulled into fully fleshed characters and plots here. The life of Sir Andrew becomes more fleshed out and rounded with this addition and his budding love is a joy to watch. Sir Toby is especially fun here. This is a great world-expanding extension to a classic and loved story. ”

“ Malone proves himself to not only be adept at adaptation but demonstrates his ability to capture a variety of character voices while juggling a large cast. By taking on this giant of a play, Toby manages to make it accessible. Set in current Covid times, this play is filled with characters whos intersectionality provides commentary on the inequity and power struggle within diverse groups of people. Their identity does not take away from their wants or needs, and the relationships are made deeper by Malone allowing them to live in their biases, beautiful and ugly, all while attempting to thrive. ”

“ This is a stunning piece of writing. The true nature of the piece lies in the complexity Neil packs into the little moments of the work. It moves at a pace that makes the moments he sneaks in there hit harder. And boy, do they hit. The exploration of love, friendship, and what it means to really be there for someone makes this a play that everyone should read, see, produce, or be a part of in some way. Astounding work. ”
