"What was absurdist about CRIMES OF THE HEART?"

One sister shoots her husband in the stomach and then offers him a glass of lemonade. Then she tries to gas herself, bangs her head on the oven and knocks herself out

One sister goes nuts and stuffs all her jewelry in a charity donation box

The mother hangs herself and her cat alongside her

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

It always struck me as more of a farce...

The Marraige of Bette and Boo. It's a really dark dark comedy but its hilarious.

I wanted to get something that an "ex"-junkie like him would really appreciate and cherish....it's a brick of heroin shaped like a heart. -Scrubs

I would go for a play that is not produced very often. Stay away from the old stalwarts like NOISES OFF or LEND ME A TENOR. Find something unique. Put your own spin on it. May I reiterate AUNT DAN AND LEMON?

It's a one-act, but THE ACTOR'S NIGHTMARE.
There's also MUSICAL COMEDY MURDERS OF 1940.
That's all I can think of right now.

So now you've met the court of 364, and if you ever wish to come...don't.
