Really good 1st and 2nd acts and decent ending. Hilarious dialogue. Love the stoner kid and the dad. ( )

This one is a little hard to rate. I have seen a production of this play, and I want to rate based on the book, since this is Library Thing, not The Play's the Thing. The trouble is, this one plays better than it reads, because the woman with the stroke and the man with the lisp are written out in stroke dialect and lisp dialect, and my brain gets tired. So I am trying to rate on the story rather than the ease of reading, and the story is...okay. Not great, not stupendous, sort of Hollywood, and sort of cop show. So, if that's the sort of thing you sit around waiting for all week, then this is a great play for you. For me? It's fine, it's a bit weird enough to hold the interest, but it will never be great. ( )
