“Bystanders,” my first audio play, dropped Monday, September 14, and is receiving rave reviews from listeners. Here’s a sampling:

“Great all around – poignant play, the direction, acting and in-the-room presence sound design. Well done all!” ~ D.H. via email

“Just listened with goosebumps to this excellent production—wonderful work by all! Gripping story, wonderful acting and keen direction, terrific sound and production values. Riveting and provocative and heart-pounding.” ~N. P., via text

“Listened in and I love the suspense. The message is great and I can’t think of a better play written about gun violence in the schools. I recommend this play to all far and near. It’s a ‘must listen’ for the sake of our children. Bravo.” ~D.G. on Twitter

“Wow. I just listened to Bystanders, and just, wow. What a gut-wrenching, complicated piece. Thank you both for your beautiful work that I hope is heard (and seen!) many, many times over.” ~C. R., via email

“‘Bystanders’ — as produced by Central Works — is an incredibly powerful work of theater. I found it highly topical, enthralling, heart-breaking, thought-provoking, engaging — basically, what we all look to from a night of excellent theater. As usual for Central Works — so professionally done — the acting, the sound, the writing, the direction — top notch!! Thanks to all involved in this wonderful production!” ~ P.K., Facebook

“Bystanders is brilliant …enormously powerful and moving.” ~ M.P., via text
