I liked the characters, they were well-drawn and fully fledged. The source of dramatic tension was believable and made sense. I very much liked inclusion of the young man suspected of having Aspergers as well as the exploration of the conflict between female nudity as art vs exploitation and one woman's complicity through her own vanity. It is a play I would enjoy directing if I had the right actors. The staging requirements are fairly simple.

This play is advertised as a comedy. If that means you're tickled by a premise or witty lines and actions which bring a smile to your face and a laugh or more, then this fails. I could not find anything humorous in it. But then, I'm not witnessing a production deftly directed and performed by actors. I'm just reading the script. It may prove to be hilarious on stage. I'll wait and see.

There are some good scenes in this book. With some editing you can cut a few scenes and lines, and you can make a 7-10 minute scene. I recommend it for 2 female actors.

Loved this play - very funny, some good monologues.
