All in the Timing

Ives's characters plunge into black holes called "Philadelphias," where the simplest desires are hilariously thwarted.

I'm fairly certain this guy is the one responsible for the movie Groundhog Day. There are some very imaginative games he plays in here, and there is innovative staging to represent various... Six comic one-act plays, in descending order of my preference:"Words, Words, Words": Three monkeys named Swift, Milton, and Kafka are part of an experiment to see if they can in fact type Hamlet, all the while throwing bits of Shakespeare's play into their dialogue."Sure Thing": A couple meet at a cafe and every time their conversation...
