The Bliss Option
a new play by Andrew R. Heinze
"An intensely imagined comedy-drama.... the rare kind of play that makes you laugh a lot and sends you out thinking.... Brought to life by two superb actors.” — Jon Sobel (BlogCritics)
"Performances that are both precise and deeply human…visually striking… an unsettling mirror of the lives we live now.” — Malini Singh McDonald, Theater Beyond Broadway
“The Bliss Option presents itself as something sweet, and in some sense, it is. It is also chilling... It will, and should, stay with you.”
— Roberta Pikser, Theater Wire
“Extremely clever… well written and executed.”
— Alix Cohen, Theater Pizzazz
