gilda is very relatable. i feel like a lot of people who struggle with their mental health think about death a lot and what happens after. i feel like i used to have the same mindset as her, so reading her thought process felt like “damn is this play about us”. regardless, i’m a big fan of the writing style, some parts were pretty funny, especially the ones where gilda embarrasses herself.
