    Clever, funny, and a perfect short play for four talented actors to show how young, would-be lovers can overcome the temptation to outsource their strategic moves.

    It can be tough to write a 10 minute play that not only tells a complete story, but does so with distinctive characters, a surprising arc, and great physicality. This first date play accomplishes all of this and more. "Stick and Move" is original, clever, and hilarious.
