Its an interesting short read. I think the meaning is meant to be fairly ambiguous, but I like to think its mostly saying that the world is just the way it is arbitrarily and suffering comes from positions you put yourself in and the expectations you put on others and vice versa.

A play that takes the concept ‘hell is other people’ and turns it into a reality. 

Such an interesting concept and so well done. The play is short and sweet and gets the message across. All the characters are such interesting depictions of people, and of people who don’t necessarily think that they have anything wrong, even though they have.

This was a thought provoking short read. I would love to see it actually acted out at some point. The characters were all interesting in their mutual self destruction.

- This was quite alright, the concept quite intriguing, and the dynamics between the characters were amusing.
