I really enjoyed reading this evocative, sparely worded play that says so much by saying so little. The subtext is so rich. Bravo!

Oh my goodness, this play! I love the music and economy of the dialogue as the two characters say their final goodbyes. What a sad, unique, beautiful play.

It’s the kind of play you read again because, like the characters, you’re desperate for a different outcome even though you know it’s impossible. The script doesn’t change and it’s not yours to rewrite.
Which, for us if not for the characters, is a profoundly good thing. Salant picks a crucial moment and, as with any great time travel story, pins fate on both what’s happening and when. This gives us a tiny glimpse into a relationship from which we can extrapolate everything we need to know.
Stirring, resonant, heartbreaking.
Every time.
