I attended a very successful reading of this play last night and was impressed with how even during a cold reading the actors had no trouble highlighting Cathro's skill in capturing the depths of what love in a couple means--in all its messiness, loveliness, hopefulness and hopelessness. And while yes the actors were talented, it really comes down to the writing which is fluid, clear, poetic and inventive. Actors and audience alike were charmed. Once again, Cathro's love of humanity comes through. Bravo.
