Sara always had an outsize impact on her best friend, Magda. Even after her death, Sara still manages to coerce Magda into going on a road trip. With Magda at the wheel and Sara’s ashes on the front seat, Anna Montague’s moving and surprisingly humorous debut, How Does That Make You Feel, Magda Eklund? (9 hours), depicts Magda’s struggle with the insanity of grieving.

Tony and Emmy Award-winning actor Cynthia Nixon’s performance sensitively juxtaposes Magda’s sorrowful introspection with the vitality of the people in her life and the vibrancy of her memories of Sara. Nixon also brings out the dark humor that frequently accompanies mourning. The result is a convincing portrayal of not only the sheer hell of grief, but also its potential for leading to reconciliation with the past and hope for the future.
