Some excerpts from Lost Limbs' first review from LA Splash Magazine!

Lost Limbs is a deeply lyrical, dual monologue piece, recounting the stories of two people who lost a loved one in the prime of their relationships. This show is for people who love language. Parish and Williams are rimming with intensity, passion and melancholy, which makes for quite engaging performances. Also, the performers handled the occasional overlapping stream of thought quite well, making it feel organic and co-incidental. The piece itself is staged as a synchronized dance between Isaac and Steady, infused with its deliberate syncopation in the language. Director Christopher Hall echoes that particular eccentricity in his staging, [which] works to convey the constant presence of the ocean and the sea that inhabits the stories and the characters. Lost Limbs dares to assert that from great loss can come even greater reward and self-awareness; I applaud the optimism of that message. Kudos to Parish for being judicious and succinct in the story she has lovingly crafted.
