This is such a great story to tell in an intimate space. I enjoyed the tight-knit audience and studio theatre. The play brought just the right mix of comedy and drama while also bringing you into the world of the story. I could see and hear the other characters as Richard would describe them or say their words--their characteristics, habits, and patterns all playing through the story.

Go see this show while you can! ...

Loved the show! Was captivated from the moment it started until the end.
