Breaking Up

Pittsburgh City Paper: "Having seen every play ever written, I confess to a certain uneasiness when a local theater company presents the Pittsburgh premiere of a 20-year-old work. If something takes that long to reach my bloodshot eyes, there's probably a reason ... and usually the reason is that the play sucks."

Given the number of plays that exist about finding true love and eternal happyness as a result, it's always interesting to see a play take a look at the darker side of love and infatuation. The idea of a play focusing almost solely on the events of a break up and the events that follow it just feels like an interesting unique idea that really has not been explored yet. There are plenty of tragic love stories, but very few love stories that should just have never been.
