A Lovely Place for a Picnic
Well written, thought provoking play. A timeless piece about highlighting how war and fear can affect our fighting men.

Wow, what an interesting piece. Definitely a psychodrama, the story got me so involved, I felt as if I were there in the jungle with the men, experiencing everything they did. The actors made it seem so incredibly real and there were times when you could cut the tension in the air with a knife. In the hour and fifteen or so minutes in the theater, I was treated to fight scenes, interrogations, suspicion, and a great piece which left me thinking even after it ended. I definitely recommend this play.
