...play's sense of confusion is heightened by the choppy transitions between scenes--as one episode ends, the lights go down and the next begins. Actors are required to change characters so frequently that the viewer finds himself lost at times in the constant mutation: the actor playing Adam in one scene is Noah in the next, but no deep resemblance between these two characters is suggested.

Even now that proximity to caffeine is not an absolute necessity, a nighttime trip to Loker is a frequent event in many students' lives...
