Wise, heartbreaking, loving
Go see this show. A distraught man shows up at a couple’s counselor’s office for counseling — alone. The counselor — not warm and fuzzy — is annoyed that the man has shown up without his wife, and he tries hard booting the man out. What follows is a cleverly constructed series of loving, heart-wrenching scenes shedding light on the man’s pain, giving the man a sort of “redo” of the events haunting him. Good theater can do more than merely entertain — it can teach us about ourselves. This wise, heartbreaking, loving show does just that.
