    In absolutely brilliant form, ONE is certain to spark thought-provoking conversation regarding the current culture of language and communication as well as what we may need to form connections. This dialogue allows the actors to play with many possibilities while retaining the depth of this experimental piece.

    I would love to see this kind of experimental play staged, as it really needs to work not only between the two actors selling it, but between them and the audience who are asked to buy what they're selling. To me, the great challenge of a play like this is all in the delivery. One word can tell us so much, BUT context, nuance, variety and connection are where the story is built, using just these one word building blocks. By the time the monologue happens, we already have a foundation to place it on. Really interesting stuff.
