Who knew a playing space as small as a car could contain specific, larger-than-life characters like June and Craig? This play is hilarious from page one, with a non-stop forward momentum. The world outside of the car is so vivid, probably because this deeply flawed but erudite duo is so passionate and engaged - which makes the audience care about them and their circumstances (especially as they begin to care about one another). The perfect political play is always personal. This script nails it!

Equal parts funny, poignant, uncomfortably real, McClain's play is a smart and high-speed look at what it takes to work behind the scenes as Congressional staffers. The ups and downs of June and Craig's individual career paths as well as their relationship mirrors the explorations of integrity, efficacy, and the cogs that turn the governmental wheels inherent in the work. A witty two-hander that is great for actors and audiences alike.
