As sharp as a drama can be. This play is as nearly as immaculate as Abaire’s house is on Halloween!

A deeply uncomfortable play about people in hard places, dealing with hard times.

This was quite the play. You don’t know who to believe. The characters all have conflicting stories and you’re not sure which one is telling the truth. I recommend it.

Wow. My heart is broken. My world is changed. Love this kind of unreliable main character.

Simple story. Tougher lesson. Sometimes the break just never comes and life just sucks. Doesn't make it any less important to try to be one of the "good people" these characters try to be/see themselves as.

One of the best plays I've read. This play has a quick wit; the characters sound like they are actually talking and listening to each other. The themes of class and the tension between moving up in society and betraying your community are compelling.
