Lawrence Bommer, The Chicago Tribune

This one act play, originally performed by Theatre Genesis at St. Marks Church in-the-Bowary, New York in 1965, introduces us to two seemingly different individuals – Velma, a strangely nervous young waitress and Frankie, a struggling but talented poet. As these two misfits meet and reveal themselves to each other we learn of the young girl’s dark and horrifying secret born from the need for family, companionship and the eternal yearning for caviar and coffeecake.
