Congratulations to local playwright Susan Partington and Evolution Theatre for their latest production Beachfront Reality, which held its world premiere on Thursday night in front of a packed house.

This impressive play deserves a national airing. Fast-paced and funny with real dialogue and good word play — and terrific acting from all — Beachfront Reality covers relevant topics from climate change and dementia to family dynamics.

Go! It’s on until March 3.

I hope Partington has started writing her next play.
