A clever, witty, brisk two-hander (or rather one-hander with a voice-over) about two down-on-their-luck bros who forge a connection under the most unlikely of circumstances. Nicely drawn and believable characters, crisp dialogue and well-plotted escalation make this a fun read (and no doubt performance) from start to finish.

It's so unexpected in this terrific two-hander (with only one actor on stage) that Jim and the Caller work each other up, antagonistically, to such a positive effect. Don't try this at home. This kind of jousting between fragile beings might prove disastrous in less capable hands than Kelly McBurnette-Andronicos who brings SUICIDE HOTLINE to its fitting applecart-upsetting conclusion. Fine, fine work!

I loved this play about two souls, one who wants to kill himself and the other who is slowly killing himself, coming to terms with their lives and maybe, just maybe, saving each other. A terrific premise and characters that make me want to follow them to the bar to play darts just to see where this goes next. IF, that is, the last line of the play doesn't hilariously screw that up. Terrific ending.
