Past or present? Do these two characters have a future? Lots to muse on here about fate and the unknown. ”

“
Carnes is clearly a writer's writer and does well with forcing us to track two conversations converging on one unknown. The bare bones, absurd experimental structure is in plain language, and yet, leaves a lot up for creative interpretation. Paired with a confusing arc, this piece is perfect for any small group looking to perform a piece that allows them to test the waters as they rehearse. ”

“
A Beckettian meditation on guilt and responsibility, on the arbitrariness of fate, and on the need for connection, with a dazzling coup de theatre ending. The only thing better than reading this play would be seeing it produced. ”
