There is a challenge in writing a review about a play where it is important you not tell anyone exactly what it is about. The Company of Fools is presenting Nassim Soleimanpour's White Rabbit Red Rabbit at the Arts Court Library. During the run the Play will never be performed by the same actor twice and the actor that plays it will have not had a chance to see the script until he gets to the theatre to read it to the audience that night.
When I was a teenager beachcombing for treasures on the shores of Prince Edward Island, I came across a bottle buried to it's neck in the sand. There was a cork in the bottle and a note with the name of the sender and that he was from Springhill Nova Scotia and the words "Please write back!" I didn't know how old he was when he sent it, how much time had passed since he sent it, where he was now or how old he was or even if he was alive. I never found out either.
