Most of us have been there, the loud mouth at the library, but what’s fascinating about A QUIET PLACE is that Luke’s cell-monologue is funny and draws you into Debbie Lamedman’s scenario as an eyewitness to a social crime. Luke thinks he’s performing an invaluable ritual service to his quarreling friends, which is entertaining but disturbing the peace at the library. His role as a hero in his small world makes him a villain in the larger picture, a dynamic that rings true in our world of self-centered citizens. A fine play.

We've all been there -- bothered by the person who loudly speaks into their cell phone. But Debbie Lamedman escalates as the disturbance happens in a library during final exams. The conflict is real and the results are hilarious.

I never would have imagined a loudmouth in a library would be a recipe for great drama, but Debbie Lamedman proves it can be done, and with great humor. And while it's hard to feel sympathy for Luke (and easy to identify with his fellow students, who are just trying to study), his phone conversation is as intriguing as it is rude.
This is a fantastic comedy for young actors. I would love to see it staged.
