I'm not big on reading plays. I'd rather watch them, but a play is on my 2015 reading challenge and since I love Daryl's other work, I chose this.
Setting aside my personal (not really dislike, but maybe lack of enthusiasm) for reading play format, I enjoyed these. They start off with some dark humor, then get a bit more serious, and then even a bit heavy. I like dark and heavy, so the last two ended up being my favorites.
Visually, I really love Singularity. I'd definitely like to see that one played out most.
