What I liked

Both actors were wonderful. I loved how grounded Dingani was. Lots of really funny great moments. The play deals with a real issue — what if there’s only one big issue driving two people apart, but the issue is as big as wanting kids or not?

What I didn't like

Sometimes the sexual moments made me nervous, but granted I grew up a prudish Catholic, and they always diffused the tension with a laugh. I also thought that maybe the last scene could’ve just been part of the first scene as one big one act, cuz I think a lot of the audience thought it was over at the first blackout.

My overall impression

Alternately funny, sexy, real, and moving two person relationship piece
