Outstanding performance!

The show was an absolute delight—intelligent, thoughtful, and humorous. I'm only sorry that we saw it at the end of its run. Otherwise, we would have encouraged all our friends to see it.

This play is a unique and refreshing change from the "same old" productions seen around the area. The dialogue was sharp and witty and the performers were totally in their characters. They made me laugh a lot and cry a little. A big thank you goes out to the author and all involved in this show. This made my Mother's Day weekend more fun than I expected.
