    A fascinating exchange in the bookstore where everything goes into the debate. Captivating!

    Relentlessly, literally breathtakingly funny! The dialogue has an amazing rhythm and tempo. The play explores the oft-pondered and still-much-debated issues of the LGBTQ+ community assimilating into heteronormativity without turning it into an essay or a debate. No, it’s a good old-fashioned argument! A spat between exes. And it is glorious!

    An excellent ten-minute play filled with humor, large ideas clashing, and regret. Highly recommend.
