Things to Avoid in a Eulogy

One of the best plays I've ever experienced! Donnie Jarman is a wonderful writer and the actors executed his words so brilliantly. As Gen Z would say, "They killed it". I felt every moment, laughter and tears are always a surprising combination. If you don't go see this play you're missing out. ... full review

First, I loved it. I did find the subject matter heartbreaking. Cancer is always hard. This woman became her own pity party after she had pushed away everyone in her life and then realized she did need companionship to help her through her final days. After all, who wants to die alone? In so doing, she placed an ad in the paper, probably not caring who answered it. I felt that she was a testament to the fact that we all need someone.... full review

This was an incredible show--I HIGHLY recommend. The story was quite heartbreaking but equally beautiful and a true depiction of life. The two actresses who played the leads had wonderful chemistry with one another and were captivating to watch. The unlikely friendship between an older woman dying of cancer and her Gen Z caretaker united our generations in a humorous yet genuine way. This play was so well executed and left many of the audience members (including myself) in tears.... full review

Things To Avoid In A Eulogy should be on your must see list. Stand out performances. The writing was at a level that one rarely sees. Wonderfully directed. At times I wasn't sure where they were taking us, yet I was thoroughly enjoying the journey. This beautiful play takes you on an emotional ride and totally sticks the landing. All that were involved in this production should be really proud of themselves.... full review

There are very few times that I've attended small theater and felt rewarded, uplifted and truly lucky to see the production. Today, that was reversed when I saw the opening performance of "Things to Avoid in a Eulogy." I can honestly say that the writing, acting and production values gelled perfectly to provide a feel-good experience out of the tragedy of the two characters on stage--an older woman dying of cancer and the Gen Z youth she hires to wait out the end with her. I don't think Donny Jarman, the author of this gem, missed any important emotional nuggets of the two characters' lives. Bravo! And all others, please see this show, you will not be disappointed!... full review
