    My stomach hurt from laughing while reading this. This kind of comedy is right up my alley. I love the dynamic between the ridiculous Alex and the straight man Hooper.

    Thoroughly enjoyed this play! The characters are hilarious and the story is truly an employment nightmare that I'll be thinking about for the rest of the day!
