Weaver always creates an unexpected spectacle - through the simpliest props -- for his monologues.
Most monologues have no props and not much physicality. The emotional life of his characters is revealed through their action - in this case, the act of peeling potatoes.
It's a heartbreaking monologue that really makes you think about the economic reality of Americans right now.
I would love to see the character Andi in a longer play.
