THE STORY: The subject of this play - as we are told at the outset - is love, pure and complicated. Set on the stage of The North Crawford Mask & Wig Club ("the finest community theatre in central Connecticut!"), three early comic masterpieces by Kurt Vonnegut (
Long Walk to Forever, Who am I This Time? and
Go Back to Your Precious Wife and Son) are sewn together into a seamless evening of hilarity and humanity. With a single set, wonderful roles for seven versatile actors, and Vonnegut's singular wit and insight into human foibles, this is a smart, delightful comedy for the whole family.
"as a night in the theatre, it's easy to love." - The Oregonian. "It takes love as its subject and handles it with the utmost skillThe overwhelming message, though, is one of hope, delivered with humor and heartdelightful." - Willamette Week. "This delightful, lyrical piece of love and simpler timesdelivers just the right amount of funmore than a few belly laughs of a more home-spun Vonnegut quality. Audiences will find themselves enchanted and often laughing out loud." - PortlandStageReviews.com. "The play might be light, but it's also serious, because its subject is the mysterious powers and vagaries of love. And it might be new, but its verities are traditional: tight scriptapproachable characters, recognizable tension, satisfying resolution." - Oregon Arts Watch.
