It's been years since I've read a play, and, because of Covid, it feels like years since I've been to the theater. So this was an enjoyable read. Clever.

I love Ira Levin, and especially his plays. A little over the top, but I think it would be really fun to see staged.

What a great play. Amazing thriller. When you think you know what to expect, the playwright basically laughs in your face.

One of the few theatrical thrillers that holds up on stage as well as page.
