This short play about the not-too-distant future is a perfect commentary on capitalism, drug companies, and how mental health is treated in America. Which is to say it's depressing and sad and enraging and makes you want to get up and change things - this is the near future after all, not the present. The characters have so much specificity and depth for a 10-minute play, and you're left grappling with all kinds of emotions over characters you've only known for a few minutes, because Aly Kantor is fantastic.
