    Touching and beautiful, this lovely short play portrays a moment of hope for one character and reality for the other. We all need to believe that there really are mermaids.

    Smart dialogue that makes it clear what they are not saying. A chance of mermaids = beautiful.

    Heart breaking thinking of the things they may be facing. A slow, lyrical romantic tale of two people sitting by the ocean. I hope she sees a mermaid.
