“

A marvelous piece as Benjamin and Bernadette grapple with their situation and the larger meaning of it all. Will something else blossom? Completely fantastic!

“

This is a poignant play, with a fun, inventive premise, about the intangible elements that form the foundation of a loving relationship and keep it strong. It would be a lot of fun to see it staged.

“

Eugenie Carabatsos is a master at forcing characters to be present with each other in a way that doesn't require words (although the language that is there is gorgeous) and TWO is no exception. This play is a treat for actors and audiences alike.
