    This play.
    This play is an outstanding example of comedy done right. With multiple plot layers all happening simultaneously, you could miss half of what's going on and still get a whole story. There's something for everyone here. The broad strokes and raucous moments of the script belie the subtle complexity of all that is happening right in front of you.
    If laughter is the best medicine, then 10/10 Doctors Recommend Muffed.
    And as someone who produced "Muffed", I can safely say audiences agree.

    This is my favorite Peercy play, by a mile. It's deeply funny, surprisingly sentimental, and fantastically ridiculous. If "It's a Wonderful Life" was about McDonald's breakfast items and not suicide, you get this play. An instant classic, in my opinion, to anyone who has ever felt the weight of legacy or the love of small town America. But not in the "Try that in a small town" way. I give it Five Big Booms.
