    The rhythms are perfect in this look at the moments when life's biggest choices creep up on you.

    There's a wonderful, deadpan matter-of-factness that can only be found between two people who know each other this well. Susan and Henry are that rare combination of characters we recognize both as people we might be and people we want to know.

    This is partially because Eppich-Harris has given them a rich background, especially Susan. When you've experienced what she's been through, or shared in it as Henry has, not a lot phases you, but you still feel things deeply. The play elegantly captures the pragmatism found amid the chaos of family dysfunction.

    I hope they make their window.

    Hilarious, tender, accurate. How can two parents-to-be manage to get through the unknown? Like everyone else...with fingers crossed. And yeah, a funeral's a great place to make whoopie.
