    David McGregor explores a serious subject with humor alongside pathos in this funny, yet moving play. Young people will relate to these characters trying to find meaning in a world that offers diminishing opportunities for it, and older people will gain insight to their plight.

    I was lucky enough to direct this play for a ten minute play festival. It was a crowd favorite! The dialogue is so crips and clever and funny and fast, the audience will enjoy every minute of the ride!

    This play is the definition of a crowd pleaser! I was lucky enough to direct it for a ten minute play festival, and it was an audience favorite. Full of hilarious lines and physical comedy, with a heartwarming message, this is a great addition to any line up of ten minute plays.

    Just heard this play in scene night, and it is so much fun! Ann puts such a funny twist on a common situation, with characters you can't help but love as you laugh at their ridiculousness.

    George is certain he can "manifest" his dreams by "following his bliss." Too bad reality gets in the way. A hilarious, pointed comedy that indicts pop psychology that tells us just what we want to hear.

    A delightful, timely comedy about the importance and difficulties of becoming being truly inclusive in theatre. Great for community theater and Senior theater!

    Wow! This play is SO powerful, I felt like I needed a recovery period after reading it Based on a a real historical figure it presents a fictional event which will make the audience gulp and ask "What would I do?" Complex and nuanced, vivid and chilling, thought provoking and extremely impactful, it's what theater at it's best is all about.

    What a beautiful and moving story about the costs of war, to soldiers and their families, and what we owe our fellow humans, both living and dead. Original, thought provoking, moving, it would be especially meaningful for Veteran's Day, and especially relevant to military families.

    What a fascinating play about a fascinating historical figure! I would love to see this and hear Django's music as well. A double treat!

    This play is so powerful, heartbreaking, and although on the surface about the war in Ukraine, timeless. In three pages Plummer brings to vivid life a character desperate to make his life meaningful, even if it means the ultimate sacrifice. Very moving.
