"the play speaks volumes about relationships and attraction, growing into adulthood, the creative process, and the role of the artist in contemporary society – all without drawing focus from the primary narrative. It’s not the type of play to ask why things are the way they are, or whether they need to change. Rather, those elements exist within the play merely because it depicts the real world truthfully."
