Never was the adage "You can't have your cake and eat it, too" illustrated more humorously or elegantly than in this quirky two-hander, in which a half-burned candle becomes so much more. Filled with two colorful and specific characters (we all KNOW these women!), the piece reminds us that the pleasures of life are to be enjoyed, not put away for an imagined "later" that may or may not ever come. Depending on which sister you align with, the play will either make you gasp and clutch your chest or nod knowingly. A warm, funny, though-provoking delight!
