Another artist who I absolutely adore, Garret Storms, shared this play with me and I completely fell in love. Jen Silverman has such a wonderful way with words, and Wink pushes the ideas of normalcy and domesticity to the absolute brink of insanity. I love art that uses absurdity to explore some very real and relatable truths, and this play is exactly that.

“Tautly directed by Jenna Burnett… A few times a season, a production stands out from the rest. Second Thought’s Wink is one of those highlights.” – Manuel Mendoza, THE DALLAS MORNING NEWS

“Wink turns a stodgy domestic trope (bored husband and wife, wondering where the magic went) into a wild adventure about scratching and clawing your way to the life you truly desire—however odd that life may seem.” – Jan Farrington, ONSTAGE NTX
(also named one of her Best & Faves of 2024!)

“Wink was a play that was many things: a drama, a comedy, far-fetched, intimate, disturbing… Director Jenna Burnett helmed a show that breathed with a patient storytelling…” – Rich Lopez, DALLAS VOICE

“Wink is a spectacular circus of alpha rage, savagery, regret, adoration, chaos: flouting the edge of the abyss. A mashup of romance, bestiality and despondency.” – Christopher Soden, SHARP CRITIC
