See You in a Minute 

by Jacob Juntunen
directed by Ellie Schwetye

See You In a Minute is at once a reflection, a character study, a mildly science fiction-y exploration, and a portrayal of various levels of grief that I’m not sure can be matched. It’s that good... So far, it’s my favorite new play in St. Louis this decade.

The layered play is terrifically engaging and resonant... offering a dramatic, emotionally satisfying reflection on a global trauma.

This world premiere production of See You in a Minute is compelling because of its relevance, its intelligent and well-written script, the sharp direction, and the terrific performances from all the actors.

Like Our Town, See You in a Minute is about family and love and death. It’s worth an evening of your time.

Many plays have been written about the recent pandemic. Jacob Juntunen adds a new wrinkle to pandemic drama by writing about the next one in See You In a Minute.
