Review by ERIK BLAIR

What I liked

The two main actors ran through such a range of emotions, often in quick succession, and they tackled them spectacularly. These actors should be ones you watch in the future because they have real chops.

I also tremendously appreciated the writing for its clarity about such an unclear phase of existence and the directing which handled the transitions in time perfectly.

What I didn't like

Nothing comes to mind. It was a brutal story done very well.

My overall impression

Breakups can be so bitter, so dark and so scary. It was amazing to see a show that tackled that last moment in such a real way, with no clear winner or loser, no clear resolution and no clear path forward. That’s life but it’s rarely what you see onstage. Very, very well done.
