Where to begin?! The beginning was hilarious.  I loved it and giggled outloud. It slowed down for me at some point. Ellie is a great character. I love her. Hesione is fun as a supporting. But I love Captain Shotover and all his running in just long enough to say something then running out again. 
This is a crazy night in a house where society standards of politeness are dropped. It is fun and there is a lot going on. I had to read in complete silence which is not normal, but I would absolutely go see this play!
