Mom holds tickets to a popular musical about love among bohemians. Her son isn't interested, so Mom takes the kindly cabdriver instead, while the boy entertains a visitor from down the hall, an enigmatic, potentially dangerous young woman. Kindness is a play about the possibility for sympathy in a harsh world and the meaning of mercy in the face of devastating circumstances. Premiered at Playwrights Horizons, New York City in 2008. \"Compelling. A well-crafted mini-thriller, which keeps you in suspense until the final blackout.\" - Joe Dziemianowics, New York Daily News \"Rapp has raised some provocative questions about the prickly mother\/son relationship he has drawn in such detail.\"- Marilyn Stasio, Variety \"Pungent, vivid...Rapp finds a gentle approach to his characters' physical and emotional pain without turning sentimental. His playful side is on display too.\" [Four stars] - Diane Snyder, Time Out New York \"Adam Rapp can write dense, tense, funny dialogue.\" - Charles Isherwood, The New York Times \"A taut and involving dark comedy. Hilarious and unsettling.\" - Dan Bacalzo, TheatreMania.com\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Samuel French, Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48683454988523,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":34.79,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9780573696800-1.jpg?v=1781628821","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/products\/9780573696800","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
