Resumen del Editor

Joseph is having a comically rough year. His job sucks, his relationship ended, he’s plagued by prank phone calls, and he nearly lost his father to the virus. When his best friend asks him to donate his sperm so that she can start a family, Joseph just can’t understand why anyone would bring a child into this calamitous world. The only bright spot is an intriguing new online relationship with an attractive internet “daddy” that has him rethinking his isolation until a series of revelations have him facing even bigger decisions about his future.

Portions of this audiobook contain mature language. Listener discretion is advised.

Playwright Paul Kruse was awarded a commission through the Audible Emerging Playwrights Fund, an initiative dedicated to developing innovative original plays driven by language and voice. As an Audible-commissioned playwright, he received funding and creative support to develop Daddies.

Directed by Adil Mansoor.

You’ll want more…

I did not want this story to end where it did, and I wish it was a complete novel!

The performances popped to life through this audible experience and I could not stop listening. It is so relatable, fresh, and funny.

Listening is quick, easy, and it will leave you wanting a part II.

Wow! This short story has EVERYTHING!

It was funny, interesting, sad, deep and thought provoking. The story took an interesting turn in the middle. I loved the multiple actors and music/sound effects. Highly recommend.

Original

Original. Even after you realize something unusual is going on and more or less what it is, I, at least, couldn't tell where the story would go with it. More positive a vibe than you might think if I summarized the plot. Seemed like a work that could be worked into a longer piece and I enjoyed that feeling of possibility.

Okay, kinda relatable (in Aug 2022), kinda weird

Performances were good, voices were pleasant and emotive. Ensemble portions were funny.

Story is set back to the early days of the pandemic and BLM, when emotions were at the highest points and opinions were loudest (which may turn some people off). There are some funny moments throughout (mostly about videoconferences), a little bit of cursing (only Fs) and, if you re-listen to certain conversations, you'll notice the author left the breadcrumbs that lead to the final sci-fi twist. Yet, the resolution came abruptly and the story seemed like it did not fully developed.

Intense and Interesting

I loved how this play played with form, it felt really immersive and true to the early pandemic setting. The voice acting was incredible, they got really talented people to really emotionally portray every character. Ultimately, it made me think about what people are we each other and how we can grow through our flaws and friendships. Great and fast.

Hilarious/relatable pandemic about relationships

The thing I love about how Paul Kruse writes relationships is you can find at least one relatable character trait, if not more. This play pulls us through the beginning of the pandemic, including all the funny and ugly truths of the world we live in today. The story is one of those stories where after you know the ending, you just have to go back and listen again to see what you missed the first time around.

Excellent

Surprising and beautifully written with great performances from the actors. It is a play that is both current and timeless.
