Some Kind of Holiday - a 10-minute absurdity

Years in captivity strain perceptions of time and metaphors for a long-married couple, but an unexpected delivery triggers a calendar--as well as an attitude--adjustment. A 10-minute comedy for the stir crazy.

    Absurd in the best way: a figuratively foggy setting and time, a preciseness of language, minimal but impactful imagery. "Some Kind of Holiday" tickled my funny bone in a good way.

    A funny puzzle of a comedy, the central relationship dynamic was fun to read and I'd be very intrigued to see the physicality written in performance.

    A hilarious comedy of a couple in captivity with word play and holidays to stir them hopefully in union! Well done.
