"And then, for something completely different, the night closes with Judd Lear Silverman’s poignant “Correct Address.” It’s not entirely clear what’s happening at first, as one man packs up his lover’s belongings. But as the tension thickens and their story unfolds, Silverman’s moving drama tackles love, loss, family ties and closure. Matt Scott and Joey Landwehr give stellar performances, believably in love with their sparkling wordplay and lovers’ banter as well as their anguish. This piece alone is worth the price of admission. Bring tissue."

"Correct Address is produced and directed by Erin Cronican and is written by Judd Lear Silverman. It stars Matt Schott (Adam) and Joey Landwehr (Jeff). Jeff dies of AIDS, Adam is left with shipping off his partner’s memorabilia to a mother that blames her son’s death on him. We could see the pain and hurt on both of them. Jeff is always on his mind; Adam just can’t let go. This is an extremely sensitive selection. Many of us have dealt with the death of a loved one, but when you are young it is much, much harder. The audience felt the reality of the situation. A perfect collaboration between actors and director."
