Good golly, Miss Molly! My heart is going like mad...and I say Yes...and Yes and Yes.

Ad introibo altare Morogiello. Cough up Guinness, cough up you fearful Limited.

[JMorogiell]

HA! Love the Joyce references! Hmm... Joyce or Beckett?

[DCLugi]

This damn show was the creamy filling to the otherwise dry cake of my theater going experience. I'd hoped that it would get a tour and perhaps a televised broadcast.

[JMorogiell]

HA! Thanks. P.S. I put your BUSHWA commercial on my channel. That was a fun shoot.

Beckett!!!

[JMorogiell]

Good choice; Terence Aselford was hilarious as Beckett! Let me look over the tapes and see how well it plays on video.

[KidScrat]

Absolutely fantastic! Best thing I've seen all year.

Could you please make this video compatible with IPhones and ITouches? It doesn't allow it currently.

Thanks,

"Keep an eye on him while I feed the goat." My my, how many times have I said that while tying up a man...

Brilliant concept. Brilliant execution. Kudos, my friend! Love the Joyce accent!

[alicetrinh]

[dentdre]

marvelously funny. i laughed alot. this should be on the tv screen.

[JaiKhalsa]

"More than life itself" was brilliant. (Terry, you're too much!!!) And the comparisons to Tom Stoppard (love him!) are not only accurate but well-deserved. Rock on.

[rmpeete]

Enjoyed it! Quality work.

Joyce, first and last. But I can bend it like Beckett.
