Cupid's Diner

by Bethany Leigh Greenman

TEN-MINUTE: Cupid's Diner is about an old man who treats his server as a therapist on a lonely Valentine's Day. Bill is separated from his spouse, who is currently sleeping at his sister's home. The server, Samy, pushes Bill to figure out where it went wrong in his relationship--and how he can fix things. All in a day's work at Cupid's Diner.

    Wonderful. Relationships can be marred by the most trivial of things and sometimes it can be something equally trivial (in some respects) that make all the difference. In Bethany Leigh Greenman's delightful little play we see how talking to a stranger can often help clear the fog. Lovely storyline which brings a smile to face and a nod of recognition at what transpires in the diner. Super stuff.
