Fifty Words (I wish it were just 25)

I went to see the play Fifty Words with Norbert Leo Butz and Elizabeth Marvel over the weekend and I have to say that they are both wonderful, engaging stage actors. If only I could have see them in a more inspiring play. The 90 minute play presents us with a married couple who slowly start to show their true colors as the marriage slowly disintegrates. Not only is it depressing but both characters are so unlikable (not the actors' fault) that I could care less what happened to either one of them. She's cold and mean, he's unfaithful, blah, blah, blah. Will they stay together for the sake of their son? Whatever.
