"... [sic]...an ingenious...play by Melissa James Gibson...colored with her characteristic lively, literate, and provocative dialogue, about five souls seeking meaning, connection and fulfillment. ...tart and juicy dramedy... of accidental neighbors who are bonded, for the time being, in a medley of confidences, aspirations, and confessions. ...Cody Goulder, in an impressive directorial debut ...has embraced this gem and polished it up with the advantage of a terrific cast. The result is a probing and sympathetic look at the struggles of this cluster of twenty-somethings for self-actualization and success....Theo (David Magadan), fumbling to compose the theme for a thrilling amusement park ride while rebounding from spousal rejection and falling in infatuation with Babette (Melody Knudson), an aspiring author who contends that history is the direct outcome of outbursts. Both console Frank (Chavez Benally) who's been jilted by his boyfriend but is undeterred in his ambition to become an auctioneer. Antoinette Martin-Hanson and Matt Clarke play the couple in marital distress. Magadan, Knudson, and Benally are marvelous counterpoints to each other, breathing believability and intensity into their roles....Ms. Knudson...glows in her role as Babette.
