“ More than just a mere conversation between father and son! Great dialogue, for sure (this IS a John Busser play, after all), but the narrative takes an unexpected turn near story’s end, which adds a whole new layer of drama to the goings-on. I really loved listening to this on the THEATRICAL SHENANIGANS podcast! ”

“ As I was reading this, I was constantly surprised, which is the hallmark of excellent craft in writing. Playwright John Busser has written a no-holds-barred light flare of a play with a superb twist at the end. Devastatingly honest, this short play packs a lifetime into ten pages. I can see audiences responding to this with recognition and empathy. Read and produce this! ”

“ I just listened to this play wonderfully produced by the Theatrical Shinannigans podcast, for it is bought to life perfectly.
Many of Bussers works are hilarious, so this play took me by surprise, but not as much as the twist within. Father/Son relationships can sometimes be taught, especially when family life is strained or broken. The playwright tackles this sensitivity, with enough grit and passion entwined.
An excellent two hander which will get audiences discussing for some time after. ”
