Two women in a bathroom wrestle with being mediocre people. The girl in the middle stall wrestles with an applicator-less tampon.

  • Emily McClain: POSITIVE

    This play brilliantly encapsulates the way our lives can intersect other peoples' at what could be critical points for them, but its just another typical day for us- or vice versa. Krause builds a theatrical moment out of this everyday interaction. T's final monologue is a great example of selective stream-of-consciousness too. Excellent work!

    A phenomenal short piece which manages to simultaneously create a complete story and fit into a greater world. This play reads as not only a piece of theatre, but as a slightly-left-of-ordinary experience possibly taking place in a bathroom near you.

    Krause has written a funny and philosophical play about how to consider living in this crazy ruined world for young women who have the most at stake for just starting out and not having made too many huge errors yet and the terror of the futures that await them depending on the choices they make. I felt for them all, especially the bloody one!
