(Lyric Hammersmith, 3 July 2017)
The play does not offer much in the way of acting. Instead of developing relationships with each other, the characters simply speak at the audience, rather well. What is spoken is Philosophy 101, illustrated with the same textbook examples. Should one be utilitarian? There is not much else out there. Should one ever defy the authority of man or law if one believes this authority to be malicious or mistaken? WWII has answered this question. The facts of the case at hand are curious.
The chilling finale is that forty percent of those scattered about the house think differently.
