REVIEWS & RECOMMENDATIONS
“John Mabey’s CASTLES IN THE ZOOM is a timely, tender, fast, and funny, romantic comedy that allows its characters to “meet-cute” without actually meeting in person. Watching Avery and Jordan roll with the changes, connect with someone new, and embrace the wonders of Zoom (rather than curse its limitations), dreamers of all-kinds can be inspired to do the same with their circumstances, finding a little magic of their own.”

“What a fun and timely little play! Loved the set-up and very realistic banter! Well done! Zoom on!”

“Zoom has opened up new pathways for so many people and so it is for this little gem of a two-hander which gives us a new perspective on the benefits (and some of the downfalls) of this channel of communication. If you are looking for a short, sharp and very funny play for Zoom - which doesn't mention any pandemic - then I cannot recommend this highly enough.”
