Production and Development History
Production of "He Sees You When You're Sleeping" as part of Pacific Play Company's Love Sucks Festival of New Works, February 2023
“There is nothing more I love better than a monologue that constantly surprises me from one minute to the next and blends dark humor with metaphysical musings about life and love. Now when the speaker is a Christmas tree, or at least in the body, or should I say trunk, of a Christmas tree offering a blunt warning to its “owner,” I have to say I was enthralled. This is not the Hallmark moment I was expecting, and that is a very good thing. I would love to see this performed. The costume possibilities alone make me laugh so hard!”
“What a dark and darkly funny Christmas fable! The Christmas tree is a font of dire warnings delivered with ironic humor. The string of revelations mixed with grand philosophical musings is most compelling. This is a wonderful antidote to the usual Christmas treacle.”
