    STEVEN G. MARTIN delivers a wonderful short glimpse of an affair of two married women, but he does it in a way that has a tremendous emotional impact with his one-minute play, “Comfort”.

    Sweet, sad, and all too real. Rich characters in a longing dance, and in two short pages. Martin squeezes so much depth and feeling out of just a few lines of dialogue. Beautiful.

    Martin is a laudably laconic playwright, capable of composing textured characters and indelible storylines in a mere minute. An enviably exquisite feat.
