Speech Team (2023)
Tim Murphy
"How Tip, Anthony, Nat and Jenn confront their tormentor, and what happens, is unexpected and surprising. A page turning, often funny caper that is also a smart exploration of Gen X characters caught between Old Guard Baby Boomer power and today's hyper-awareness of trauma and identity. Speech Team asks: Can we ever liberate ourselves from the past?"
