My overall impression

Some parts of this play were very funny but most of it fell flat. The description speaks of saving their marriage and “financial ruin”, but rarely did I feel these two were anywhere close to either leaving each other or having the sort of revelation around which the playwright tip-toed without ever actually getting too close. Both actors are clearly talented but existed in different plays. The nightmare scene was very effective with just a flashlight and some good tableaux, and I wish the script had received the same sort of attention.
