I found this a fun play, I enjoyed how the thoughts and feeling that the characters spoke of are true for the majority of society. I know for myself I could speak of something in denial and then become defensive of it in the future. Or as I become more comfortable with another being and myself, my true characteristics come out. These are a couple of examples that I saw the characters portraying. I found their thought process that they spoke of out loud was humorous because they are the goofy thoughts that we all think but rarely talk about. The dead man really got me thinking, this man was trapped in his body with feelings of life but he could not move or speak. I came to realize that dead people as they portray them in movies usually can speak and move but have no feeling (zoombie) That impressed me, they worked with their views rather then the general view. This was the same cast as the elusive spark and once again the think the did a tremendous job working together.
