Got a chance to see George Hunka's IN PUBLIC on Saturday night, with a few friends.
First of all, I'll say that I thought the play was tight, well-crafted, beautifully acted and directed with a sure hand. It's funny and it shows off George's deftness with a turn of phrase. Dramatically, it works entirely... you feel invested in the play's climax, and interested in the emotional life of these characters.
A friend of mine joked that the play is written around a dirty joke. Which, I must say, is absolutely true.
Onwards and upwards!
