What I liked

The transitions and use of lights, sound cues, and character interactions with phone calls were impressively creative. This play made me want to call every person I have regrets about not speaking my truth, feelings I did not express, and regrets I had over not speaking up.
Also, buy their stickers; they are pretty cool.

What I didn't like

need tissues on deck if you’ll be tearing up

My overall impression

A must-see play that involves the rawest characters focusing on the post-trauma from a life-threatening situation as a wake-up call to presenting the heart’s truth in the face of mortality. The actors are incredibly human and natural. The layers of uncovering the character’s relationship with another are well-paced with all the subtle reactions, movements, and body cues.
