Just got it from the library, I'm excited to read it because I know so little about english (language) theatre outside of Shakespeare and mass-produced broadway musicals that I wasn't sure of its existance.

It took me an embarrassingly long time to find the time to read the 97 pages of this book. It's very funny indeed but I found myself thinking that it would be better to see the actual play several times because the switching between the two converging narratives would be much more interruptive. And the quickness of reading made most of the major themes appear a bit superficial. Even the main emotion vs. academia debate seemed a bit trite to me. I guess that's more a problem with the piece itself than with the format.
