I really enjoyed that. The interplay between the characters would be fun to work with on stage. I really wasn't sure how it was going to turnout. What's even better is that I didn't even know how I wanted it to. The ending is satisfying but leaves an intriguing ambiguity.

I thoroughly enjoyed this. Simple set. Few characters, but characters that are easier to picture and imagine. I'm throwing this on my list of shows I want to direct.

Cute little play, though it may already be outdated.
