Painful

for any sales person 60 or over who has hit the skids and lost the speed and energy of years past - this is brutal. The Old Man and the Sea would be a good companion to this but it has a more subtle hope implied.

A Riveting Tragedy Indeed!

Loved it! It meets the true expectation of its title, a real modern tragedy at its best. Enjoy!

Excellent performance and story

Powerful performances and delivery. I was surprised by how well the live play translated to audiobook format, very easy to distinguish between characters. Moving story, very relatable.

Fantastic Performance!

I never read the book or heard about the story. I am glad it was recommended to me. This is a beautiful real life experience and it is so relatable for all of its characters. I applaud this play. Amazing!

Great performance brings into mind what is inside the minds of aging employees after they’ve been at it for the mini many years
