Mini Review Nicholas Carella's play about a love triangle that never quite jells is full of telling human moments. Written mostly as a series of monologues, the play works best when Carella himself is stage centre as Mark, a self-deluded young man with a crush on fellow student Laura (Inessa Frantowski); he can't help but put both feet in his mouth when he's near her. Carella brings charm and humour to the part. On the other hand, Laura's current partner Dan (Aaron Forward) never emerges as a fully-formed character. NNN (JK) NNNN (JK)
