The play introduces itself with a butcher and his wife in bloody aprons... talking directly to us. They're perfectly pleasant, matter-of-fact even, as they unfold the story of their town. It's a good story. An unfinished story because the town has reached it's first ever crisis and we are bearing witness to it.
The atmosphere is very Shirley Jackson meets WOMAN IN THE DUNES. The imagery is vivid even if performed on a bare stage. It's a full meal in six pages and leaves you wanting more (in a great way), and worried for whoever discovers the town next.
