What sets this play apart is the wit and realism of the writing combined with great direction and acting. Their are moments when the wordplay sparkles with enough wit to set your humor neurons on fire. Each of the actors performed well, however Madelaine Schmitt as Darlene O'Brien and Bryan Hart as Alan O'Brian stood out as the leads with moments reminiscent of Tracy and Hepburn. Nicole Roberts and Kate Donoghue were delightful with their Irish accents battling against the supposed "Irishphobia" of the EPA administrator played by Julie Soroko. All the while the direction of Anna W. Menekseoglu kept the chaos of emotion and reaction of the ensemble on the stage under control. The result is an evening of delightful humor with a message or two about the vagaries of love and life.
Needless to say, a comparison of our Bryan and Madelaine to Tracy and Hepburn is accepted as a blessing.
After all, Spencer and Kate
were simply great.

That's gotta feel good. Any chance of a YouTube showing?
Eventually. Have to video it first, but we plan to do so!
