About
This one act play is a drilling dramatic comedy about two dentists meeting head-on at life's pitfall. On a rainy day in the office an aging dentist Robert Gilmore and the more recently acquired practicing partner Jay Stephens, have the unfortunate leisure to let truths fly. Jay is a young hotshot, and Bob is stuck in the old ways, but they both have secrets that are yet to be divulged when a patient falls terminally ill. The office secretary has failed to show up today, leaving Bob and Jay in a certain spaciousness with no limitations to open wide the doors of hell.
