    This story takes place in a horrific time and place with no hope for the two people in the tale, and yet we find humanity and a deep understanding of the small things and moments that are life-affirming and hopeful. It is both touching and horrifying, and very, very moving.

    This is a funny and touching play that explores self-awareness, self-doubt, and reflection. The characters, Mason and Doris, are drawn deeply and with both love and sharpness. And if you're at all familiar with the works of William Inge, you will appreciate it even more. But even if you're not, you will enjoy it.

    This play moves breathtakingly fast but still does a fine job of fully developing the characters and relationships. The pace sweeps you along and you genuinely get to understand the people, the story, and the achingly difficult choices they face.
