This was exhausting, good, but exhausting 

Re-read to teach this semester in my directing class. Even better than I remembered.

5.0

Wonderful play and this is a very solid audio version. I probably like the tv film with Dennis Quaid etc. more but this is still a production of the highest quality.

Characters are good and the idea of friendship as a kind of vow is interesting; ultimately found the mid-life marriage crisis not so interesting. Lotta characters are bad listeners!

Audiobook gave me the next best thing to being able to see it performed live. It was the original cast and everything. This is only the second play I've "seen" by Margulies (the first was Time Stands Still which I did get to see on Broadway and was amazing) but I look forward to listening to the other audiobook available of his and reading even more of his plays.

A glimpse into two couples’ friendship and relationships. This was a very quick read for me and I would be interested in seeing how this would play out on stage. I feel like it would be pretty emotional, just because of the themes this touches on. Also
Tom is such a dickhead
