In purely behavioural terms, the play is dead accurate, and Lonergan is not slow to point out that these are all the kids of rich parents who themselves lead pretty messed-up lives. What Lonergan leaves out, however, is the question of whether the Reagan ethos is partly responsible for all this moral confusion. We learn that Dennis's social-worker mother is full of raging impotence at the new economics. But the fame of Dennis's painter-father, and the brutishness of Warren's, seem unconnected to the zeitgeist; and, likeable as the play is, it fails to go the final mile in indissolubly linking private and public lives.

The setting may be New York 1982 rather than Britain in 1956; but, beneath the whiff of pot, this is a quaintly old fashioned kitchen sink drama that relies for its effect on Laurence Boswell's buoyant direction, the charms of its young Hollywood stars, and most of all the hindsight of the audience - the majority of whom will have first had knowledge of just how ghastly the 1980s turned out.Synopsis: Warren, 19, speaks to Jessica after spending the night together (which she greatly regrets) and telling his friend Dennis.

Best Plays of All Time: Comedies, Tragedies and Dramas Ranked". Time Out New York . Retrieved 2020-04-17.For a busy marketing department, this play is a dream, having an appeal to the middle-aged, who misguidely want to relive their youth, and to their offspring, whose taste for tales of the pains of youth is pretty well unlimited judging by TV.
