We thought this was a poor play filled with gratuitous smut irrelevant to the plot, a lack of character development and basically pointless. On the other hand, the acting was superb.
The acting was excellent. I found Peter and Craig both to be self absorbed users who weren't interested in commitment. The biggest mystery to me was why Kelly
thought she loved Craig. She also was nicer to Peter than he deserved. Maybe he came to hurt her because he had been hurt by the comment that was made to him
during his play that day. I found him to be nosy and not caring of her. She was too passive in both relationships.
A master class in acting. The performances were phenomenal in a very thought provoking play.
I thought the acting was really good. But I thought the play really needed work - too many undeveloped angles - throwaway line from brother about wantign her to have his baby (say what?) Was that why she hated him and wanted to avoid him? Why was she so distraught about her jerk of a husband having sexual encounters in army if he already said he didnt love her (what an SOB the way he handled it). I dont know but I was sort of annoyed by all the characters (especially the men) and thought they didnt deserve Kelly at all. Pretty contrived entances and exits for brother change too. Sorry.
