←Recommendations of Strangers and No Train

What a lovely example of the power of simple human decency. Burt learns the depth of his worth, despite his diminished work circumstance and Alice learns that "there are still good men in the world." Theirs is a simple, yet moving, exchange.

What a beautiful and touching piece between two strangers. RACHEL FEENY-WILLIAMS always finds the humanity in characters as they make their way through difficult moments.

Yeah... we need more folks like Burt in this world. A very lovely, touching moment for two disappointed souls who manage to find each in the most unlikely of places. Tis will add a tender highpoint to any evening of shorts. Rachel's done it again.

This is a touching short two hander where two characters meet from worlds apart, both are portrayed perfectly, Bert the old fashioned gent and Alice the damsel in distress. Rachel has a unique talent for recording snapshots in time and this is an excellent example. I can imagine Bert and Alice chatting all through the night!

This delightful, unconventional brief encounter on an out-of-service train platform says so much about human connection and human kindness, as well as about generations, age and obsolescence, and the value we sometimes fail to place on the things that should matter most. We should all strive to be more like Bert, a gentle soul and one of nature’s true gentleman. This short play is heartwarming in all the right ways. Lovely in every way.

I wish there were more Bert’s in the world. Tried and true and so kind. A lost young woman runs into him on a lonely, non-active train station. She’s stuck, but he makes the best of it for her. A lovely chance meeting.
