Media

“Equal parts freeform poetry piece and soulful duet... portrays a relationship as it is remembered: fantastic and intoxicating.” – Austin Chronicle

“Evocative... A small, contained show focused on two characters... very much grounded in the African American experience.” – Austin 360

“A well-balanced mix of dialogue and original R and B tunes that run the emotional gamut from breezy, to seductive, to playful, to heart-wrenching... Fittingly, the writing is incredibly on point: rich with witticisms, emotional exchanges, and some of the best vocabulary I’ve seen outside of a Martin Amis novel.” – CTX Live Theatre

“A script full of beautiful poetic language that is both romantic, ‘we were long-lost twins climbing back into a womb of our own design,’ and heartbreaking, ‘the world has become a kaleidoscope of spiritual upper cuts.’” – Atlanta Journal-Constitution

“Equal parts freeform poetry piece and soulful duet, [Klook and Vinette] portrays a relationship as it is remembered: fantastic and intoxicating... Walker's prose paints a colorful world of tenderness.” – Austin Chronicle
