Four 'Til: A Play about Hell

Chick-Fil-a is now open until midnight! Two workers hold down the fort while they wait for the clock to strike twelve and send them home. If only their manager would release them early. If only that weird guy would quit coming in with his bizarre order. If only the clock would actually change. Why isn't the clock changing? Where is the manager? And why does this freak keep ordering fruit on a sandwich?

Four 'Til: A Play about Hell

  • Daniel Prillaman: Four 'Til: A Play about Hell

    As someone who is not unfamiliar with bizarre and terror-inducing restaurants, take my word for it when I say that FOUR 'TIL is brilliant. The dread starts setting in from the opening stage direction, and the pace is pitch perfect. Retail is hell enough, but Willoughby has deftly managed to make it even worse than you could have ever imagined. Fruit cups have never been scarier. Thankfully, the real pleasure here is in reading this. A short play that would kill at any festival.
