“ It’s a classic set up: two strangers on a park bench. But in Jack Levine’s world, it’s never “just” as simple as two people meeting. The quirky humor that unfolds as they each reveal something about themselves makes us all feel a little less bizarre. It’s a heart-warming sweet play that never dips into saccharine. This would be a lovely addition to a Valentine’s Day short play festival! ”-Emily McClain
“ Human nature looks for something in common when we meet someone: a similar upbringing, the same hometown, mutual interests; something to connect and validate our own lives and affirm that we’re not alone. In this sweet little two-hander, Jack Levine finds common ground between two seemingly very different people and make a tenuous connection — as flimsy as a soap bubble — but even bubbles can form a foundation. ” – Philip Middleton Williams
