and thought-provoking piece of theatre. The text is devoid of any kind of stage direction or even identification of the speaker, however, which might make it a confusing read. Each scene, some only a few lines long, is self-contained and explores some aspect of perception or memory. For example, a family rewatching a wedding video observe that they can't really remember the wedding anymore, only the video of the wedding. Despite the title, love is not really on the agenda.</div><div id="rfd_107291906" class="reviewFlagDialogBox"></div><div class="commentFooter"><span class="reviewMods"><span
