“Playwright Younger blends fact, fiction, and speculation in the cleverest of ways, while featuring a diverse mix of straight and gay characters who may or may not be destined to a happily ever after, and so what if a certain scene breaks the rules he’s established. It’s an entertaining detour into sci-fi territory so I went with it.”

“The desire to be fully seen is at the heart of the play, and the characters become so through a generous script that gives them all nuance and clarity, as well as pitch-perfect casting and acting.”

“The ensemble, and the tech designers deliver an enticing production that mines Younger’s humor and pathos with equal assurance.”

“Younger’s consistently clever plotting links the events of the past to the present without things feeling overly ham-fisted.”

“Younger’s writing shines brightest in the dialogue, especially unexpected moments of witty repartee (‘Did you say hence ?’) among the modern characters, and in weaving the play’s disparate strands to a satisfying conclusion.”
