Liam Castellan: Analysis Paralysis by James Kelsey Nelson

“

Very fun. I guffawed several times. Several surprises along the way. The ending I could not see coming, yet it felt very right as a landing pad for this wild and clever play. Very madcap, but keeping room for heart. The characters are all so well-drawn that even when they made an obviously bad decision, I kept rooting for them. You should absolutely "roll the dice" on this hilarious unit-set comedy!
