    A very humorous take on choosing the one and only!

    A frenetic piece that benefits from a breakneck pace and some very clever comedic repetition. There were not one but two plot twists I didn't see coming, which is impressive for a ten-minute play. And it really sticks the landing. Good fun.

    A fantastic comedy as the anxiety on the big day comes to a boil and shenanigans ensue! Well done!
