Ellen Abramas choice to bring to the page and stage Dr. Peter Mark Roget -- the man behind the famous thesaurus -- has resulted in a hilarious spectacle -- of synonyms! And it's much more: it's about finding that passion after many years pursuing something completely different. The play seems to encourage us to pursue that idea, create something that truly makes us happy -- something that compliments our soul, something synonymous to it. Unfortunately, for many of us, our day job, what pays the bills, is 'antonymous' to our innermost desire, (if that makes any sense).
