Half

Synopsis:
a play about two strangers, a French man and an American woman, whose moral, cultural, and philosophical differences make for a provocative encounter on the streets of New York. Gradually shifting from internal monologue to external dialogue, the play's structure depicts how thought and spoken word gradually merge as guardedness fades and connection begins.
