Beautiful piece! The naturalistic-meets-lyrical language, unity of time and space, and dynamic and eclectic characters heighten the theatricality of the play. A lovely meditation on marriage and its intersection with connection, intimacy, fulfillment, and purpose. Shifts between humor and poignancy with ease, and Stephen's overall trajectory is fully realized and his ending monologue is potent. Caruso's subtle attention to his characters' intersectional identities is a very welcome and nuanced layer. I'd love to see it onstage! ”
