Anna, Ruth, and Peter await the arrival of their newborn child in a remarkably clever comedy which examines the sense of innocence and optimism that rises from potentially dark subject matter. Before the due date arrives, the three expecting parents make a pact to rid their crowded apartment of their three imaginary children. Hilariously startling and brilliantly funny, Vogel redefines the meaning of family and the boundaries between illusion and reality, power and subjection, friendship and love, female and male.

      The play is pretty bizarre, but it's an interesting take on relationships, family, and, probably, one's 'inner child,' to go back to the early to mid 90s. It would be easy for it to fall flat, but... Expand

      The play is pretty bizarre, but it's an interesting take on relationships, family, and, probably, one's 'inner child,' to go back to the early to mid 90s. It would be easy for it to fall flat, but pretty excellent performances from Erin and Sheana make it worth seeing. They move fluidly from their adult characters to their childlike alter-egos, and, in Sheana's case, from Orphan to Henri with success. The Orphan-Henri sandwich debacle is easily the most attention grabbing scene, and it showcases Sheana's ability and comedy supremely well. Erin has a gift for effortless comedic timing, and her Cecil is delightfully nerdy but self-sufficient. Go and see! Collapse
