The Hysteric wants the hole package. The Obsessive is moored in the hole, summing parts. The Pervert swears he saw the hole thing. For the Psychotic, it’s no holes barred. Not exactly Lacuna Group material, but I had to park this somewhere. Thanks!
It seemed appropriate to use a defunct theatre website for this. I am in the process of carrying through on some emotional house-cleaning, and as a part of that, I want to include a farewell to theatre-making.
