How To Make Friends And Then Kill Them
Halley Feiffer
I Wanna Fucking Tear You Apart
by Morgan Gould
Highlights
Synopsis
Samantha and Leo are a team—best friends and roommates, fat girl and gay guy against the world—until a new friend upends their cozy co-dependent diet of mutual self-loathing and Grey’s Anatomy marathons.
An ode to the complications of friendship in its many fucked-up forms, with a special nod to a kind of love that sometimes looks a lot like rage.
Press Reviews
"Morgan Gould’s new play is so authentically rendered you feel as if you’d hacked into someone’s phone and read all their texts."
— Washington Post
"Packed with hilarious one-liners and touching moments, the script does a fantastic job of portraying the ups and downs of even the closest friendships."
— The Hawk Chicago
"I Wanna Fucking Tear You Apart shows every bit as much promise as Edward Albee’s early work, arguably more. That Morgan Gould can be mentioned in the penumbra of this playwriting giant is a tribute to her voice, craft and conscience."
— DC Metro Theatre Arts
"Acerbically funny and potent... Writer-director Morgan Gould cuts deep with this edgy, funny, foul-mouthed tale of friendship."
— Metroweekly
"★★★★★ “Witty, funny dialogue delivered with ninja precision... a pure joy to watch. A comic jewel masking the bruised heart we all carry."
— DC Theatre Scene
