NOTES
Some mild adult language
An elderly man just wants a glass of club soda. Why do his lights keep turning on and off? Why is his wife suddenly speaking Italian? Why is HE suddenly speaking Italian? This play--about the unexpected results of an experiment gone awry--is a rapid-fire and hilarious comment on the scientific method. (Really, it is.)
(This play can also be performed as part of the full-length play 3m1w.)
