    Witty, perceptive, with some delightful characters and a wonderfully original scenario. The mother/daughter relationship is realistic, and the golem is intriguing and distinctive. A fun play!

Nick, 24. Depressed and bad at identifying her problems.
The Repair Man. Just a chaotic-good Golem with a wrench. Any gender. Ageless.
Miriam, 53. She’s your friend Adam from elementary school’s mom, or your mom. You’ve met her before.
Aaron, 24. Nick’s boyfriend. He’s alright. He’s really trying.
