I knew nothing about this play, except for the top line plot - a young man is beaten bloody in an apparent hate crime and left to die alone. While that is absolutely grotesque, this finds itself being a story about hope, kindness. I was particularly intrigued by the rippling effect of hateful acts when Reggie finds out that Matthew was HIV positive and by attending and investigating the crime scene, she may have been exposed to HIV so has to take AZT to try and stave off infection .
It goes without saying that you really should read the trigger warnings for this one. I’m shocked at how hopeful I was left feeling. I also loved seeing the foundations of techniques that were used in the composition of the play and its material.
