Mini Review
A woman enters a short-story contest for her writer husband, opening a can of worms in terms of their relationship and questions about personal as well as artistic morals. Jason Cadieux's play, with its touch of meta-theatre, needs tightening, and the stop-start quality and awkward rhythms of the production don't help matters. Cadieux the actor comes off better than Cadieux the playwright; there's a sense of energy and tension about him that neither of the other actors capture.
