The Reviews:
“The play gets under your skin. It isn’t built to give you the comfort of a neat “friends-hanging-out” rhythm. It’s closer to life—messy, unscripted, and shifting.”
“Somewhere in the story you’re going to recognize something. You might realize: that is me—once, or I know that person, or I’ve been there before or even I’m there now.”
“The tone is a “perfect storm” of humor, tension and blunt confrontation. I found myself laughing in moments where people might feel appalled—because the dialogue lands like real conversation.”
—Marty Treinen—PALM SPRINGS TRIBUNE
“Why this production exceeded my expectations… because of the people creating the experience. The performances are exceptional, because these aren’t just actors playing a character. These actors are their characters.”
“This play poked in me. Not with speeches, with mirrors…[it] hit me at a time when I needed to hear it.”
—Marty Treinen—PALM SPRINGS TRIBUNE
“It’s the first production I have seen at The Bent, and from even just the curtain speech there was love in the air. GREAT theatre is made with love. No big budget or celebrity can replace it. This was great theatre.”
“Viewing live theatre like this strengthens the connections between those who will see it together. I highly recommend taking somebody you really like to chat with. Make cocktail plans afterwards, you are going to want to discuss!”
