    A beautiful little play about a huge undertaking and also about falling in love, backwards, on wheels, all happening at the same time. This piece demands wonderful, creative staging and is an opportunity for fun and inventive physical work, all in addition to showing us the delicate connecting of two people on a long, hard trip. The piece is a great challenge, both in content and execution! Highly recommended.

    The play, like the relationship presented within it, is romantic, brief, and quick with love. But Walker doesn’t sit crouched in sentiment, she makes both the of the characters flawed and complex which made me root for them all the more. I love the theatrical possibilities of this play, it should be produced all over.
