Glossolalia

I was very impressed by the dialog and the actors. It was a topic that lead to much debate. Thought provoking. At times it was funny, intense, sad, and kept you wondering how it was going to turn out for these two characters. The acting was suburb and believable. ... full review

1-hour feminist drama exposing the internal bigotry and conflict of interest within any major religion. What is taught in books and sermons VS what is lived in one's own daily life.

It's a must see, and if you missed this run, you need to watch out for the next run and go see it. Perhaps one of the best writings in the festival, if not the best.... full review

"Glossolalia" is a play that beckons, rather than forces, the audience to question the morality of a tumultuous relationship between two firey, twisted, beautiful characters as they navigate the natures of sex, love and religion. I could not recommend it higher.... full review
