    Wondrously poetic. The dialogue is effortless, revealing the layers of interpersonal relationships fluidly. The romanticism and sadness equally matched inside a smooth kind of theatricality. It's always a pleasure taking a step back from the limitations of reality and experiencing something ethereal and intangible that only a play like this can deliver.
