I never saw the ending coming, and actually went back and reread this two more times just to analyze how this mother/daughter conversation changed from an everyday one to something deeper and more disturbing. The play's title takes on an added resonance once the real reason for this conversation comes out. This is a winner.

I got jittery just reading this piece. Gacinski captures an all too familiar scenario here. Like a gambler hoping for the one lucky hand, his character Luis is putting all his hopes on a risky (in more ways than one) plan to smuggle drugs to pay off crippling debt. The final image left for the audience is both a sad reminder of Luis’ plight and a probable indicator that he’s going to be caught. Powerful stuff.

I loved this piece and what it had to say about our nature. Witty and engaging, Dunne's script would be a welcome addition to a short play festival that proves you don't need spectacle to sell a play, just a smart idea, told simply. I'd love to see this produced.

This play made me laugh from page 1. Hilarious! The biggest compliment I can give it is that I'm envious I didn't think of it. It's short, funny as hell and should be seen by everyone.

I was moved and saddened watching the disintegration of the two main character's friendship, caused by the immovable position we tend to take when meeting an opposing point of view. Ade's characters seemed all too real and I loved the fact that the focus of their rift, the younger student, never tells you which avenue she would pursue. Well worth the time and effort to produce this for the stage.

I actually muttered "Whoa!" at the end of this. I did NOT see that coming. Either put this as the first piece of a shorts festival to let people know they are in for an interesting evening, or last as a perfect capper to it.

I loved this. An odd idea carried out perfectly. "The rabbit is literally chewing the scenery." made me burst out laughing. Fun to read and I'd bet, fun to perform. Well done Rachel.

A wonderful little 10 minute play that reminds you, no matter how much you plan, no matter how repetitive your days, you can always change what's about to happen. Levine never fails to entertain.

That... was creepy. And fun to read. No special effects needed. Just good, solid actors for this wonderful little piece.

I don't know what's funnier. The piece about Mr. Microphone that Lawing wrote, or the fact that not only did I once HAVE a Mr. Microphone, I also sadly owned the same type of car he describes in this hilariously touching monologue... a Pinto. What else has he stolen from my younger days?
