There is a certain degree of naive sweetness and optimism in this bleak futuristic world of devastation and hopelessness that would be emotionally satisfying in a live performance. Like Thurber’s “The Last Flower,” Caffrey uses irony in this cautionary tale to its fullest advantage. The ending is quite powerful. Wonderful play for young actors and audiences.
