Wow- just wow. Incredible script. Great cast. Creative directing and design. Transitions flowed seamlessly from scene to scene and kept the story moving. If this gets extended-- GO SEE IT!!

This play was an amazing period piece overflowing with every emotion! Will really knocked it out of the park with his fantastic writing & the actors were spot on. I would highly recommend seeing this beautiful piece if you ever get the chance to again. The two awards & one encore performance were very much deserved!... full review
