David pulls it off again in this amazing serious of one acts (which are not for the light of heart). If you're offended by anything, just pass it up.

Worth the read- and reread though.

This review is from: Three One-Acts by David Lindsay-Abaire - Acting Edition (Paperback)

Great little stories from a Pulitzer Prize winning American playwright. I laughed out loud at "Baby Food". As another reviewer noted, however, these are not for anyone easily offended by language or offbeat humor.

Anyone considering this should be aware, however, that these are VERY short one-act plays. All were originally part of the increasingly popular 24-hour festivals or 10-minute play festivals. I think only Crazy Eights would play for more than 10 minutes. This only detracts from these stories if you're looking for longer plays to pair for an "evening of one-acts".
