The voices of these young playwrights offer a new theatrical kaleidoscope of short pieces, but in this latest work from Walden Theatre, there's a new sense of structure.

A young man begins the play as he starts unwrapping a Snickers candy bar while a young woman watches with disgust and loathing. The young man is totally focused on the candy bar, and the young woman is explaining to us exactly why she could not consider a relationship with this impossible person. Then we're off into other wonderful short pieces such as "The Adventures of A, B and C," the title piece and others. However, as increasingly assertive punctuation marks between each segment, the boy, the girl and the Snickers bar recur each time taking their story to a higher level.

Serious subjects are adroitly addressed, and there's comedy and farce. Here again Walden Theatre offers the clear and uncensored voices of young, talented playwrights.
