Reviews
“Carla Ching’s play impresses most with its delicacy of feeling. The combustible chemistry between rebellious artist Diana and compliant Max is touching in its vulnerability—the only stuff these kids manage to blow up are their opportunities for happiness. The result is a consistently engaging, deftly staged debut.”
—The LA Times
“TWO KIDS is a bruising, mightily felt, sharply scripted and beautifully acted story of two people who, though their lives have been intertwined for almost 30 years, have yet to figure out what they mean to one another.”
—Talkin’ Broadway
