Green Whales - Romeo Lia
“Lia Romeo is a deft playwright with a wild imagination…. The promise inherent in this play is significant.”
Kansas City Star
“Two very different sisters, mourning the recent death of their mother, are forced to take stock of themselves and attempt to find meaning through their relationships with the less-than-perfect men in their lives.
Despite the provocative themes explored—pedophilia among them—ultimately this is an insightful (or inciting) and darkly humorous examination of the how the human heart’s need to find a human connection can manifest itself in ways that are not always the most edifying.
And yet, despite the foolhardy behavior on display, one can’t help coming away with the impression that the playwright believes that the willingness to risk it all for love has its own rewards—making it all worthwhile.
…It’s another edgy, daring play…that’s not easily forgotten. Recommended.”
Gregory M Alonzo, Stark Insider
“When Goethe wrote, ‘Love is an ideal thing, marriage a real thing,’ he might have drunk from the same glass that Lia Romeo shared with us three hundred years later.”
