How does a computer scientist hook up with a molecular biologist? He blinds her with science, of course. When Elliot builds a computer program to help Molly with her research project, the variables in their evolving relationship shift as rapidly as the terms of their experiment. This deft and imaginative new ROM-comedy shows that even the most sophisticated algorithm may freeze in the face of life's infinite possibilities.

"Four stars. Nerd-sweet, incredibly seductive, and wonderfully generous." - Time Out New York



"A funny, ridiculously smart new play. I haven't seen another play recently that so perfectly captured love — hot-blooded, fearless, fickle — at this stage of life." - Bloomberg News



"Moses has Aaron Sorkin's ear, and his gift for sorting Big Ideas into witty epigrams and human scale exchanges. A brash and brainy but ultimately honest and body-temperature portrait. It's about faith and data in an OK Cupid world." - New York Magazine



"Barbed, seductive, and heartbreaking." - New York Press



"Moses writes the way young people think, with an unexpectedly fine ear for contempo sexual politics' dizzying conversational loop." - Variety



"Moses subverts stereotypes. Dramatically compelling and refreshingly hilarious. " - LA Weekly

"Four stars. Terrific. If you don't find math and science sexy, Completeness might change your mind." - Time Out Chicago



"Avoids tired stereotypes and offers new insight on love and connection; his fully fleshed-out characters bring home the difficulties in store as people who live in their heads act with their hearts. Sweet and universal. Kudos to Moses." - New City Chicago
