Reviews:
“This is a strongly written script, with a poignant, dramatic setting that essentially touches upon themes of domestic abuse and entrapment - Tia's simple plight of lacking a bed to sleep on is just the tip of an iceberg - she is trapped in a marriage and circumstances beyond her control, and this one simple thing, a bed, is the only way she can achieve some agency in her life. The characters are well fleshed out, distinct, and jump off the page.” — Shore Scripts, 2025
