“Matty’s play is clever and muscular, I found myself falling deeper and deeper into the story. How they used absurdism to speak to the incompetence and brokenness of the healthcare system was painful and hilarious. The play triggered my anxiety as I recalled many frustrating experiences navigating the healthcare system. Above all, Matty’s play made me feel like I am not alone.”
–Donja R. Love on UN(IN)SURE
