My overall impression

I liked the show… a LOT. But that wasn’t one of the choices. I enjoyed it more than a mere “like.” Actors, Director Great Job!!! I knew right away that the characters weren’t watching a football game and that the talking about the game was a coping mechanism to deal with war. I thought maybe they were in a psyche ward and I was disturbed a little with the arrival of a “real” GI into the space that had been occupied by the two guys—especially since they did nothing to help her. I think the writer has a little more work to do but that it could end up being a very compelling piece. I’d mess with time a little more and decide if it’s a 25 min one act or a 90 min full length.
