general praise
“[...] the show is, at times, inarguably funny. There’s a chattery, freewheeling humor to the scenes with the supermarket’s current employees. Xtina lets the girls’ language tumble out in all its casual, intimate shorthand, its weirdness and messy desire.”
-Sara Holdren, Vulture
“The exact right blend of fabulous, feminist, and totally fucked up.”
-Kate Schatz, NYT-bestselling author of the Rad American Women A-Z and Rad Women Worldwide
“[...] this is only the beginning of Xtina’s punk, misandrist filmic lens.”
-Shayna Maci Warner, Women and Hollywood
“Xtina’s film is constructed as a series of vivid details, a film that perfectly captures the vulnerability and naïveté of teenage life.” -Kentucker Audley, NoBudge
“a kaleidoscopic vision of interiority, feminity, and solitude blown up to the size of the solar system. [Xtina‘s] imagination has the power and intensity of the sun.”
-Ryan Stevens, playwright
“Just like many things in this play, the theatre needs to burn down and when it's rebuilt lets only produce Chloe Xtina's plays!”
-Shaun Leisher, dramaturg
“This play is like if 13 Going on 30 was rewritten by Fiona Apple.”
-Karolyn Mckenzie, filmmaker
