This is a new play, and part of a the Commonweal's 'new play' series.
I generally really liked this production. The story was strong and interesting. One minor moment was unintentionally misleading, and it's a moment that I hope will get corrected as the playwright continues to refine the work.
Overall I think that this play could have a long life in the community theatre circuit.
