"Characters seemed to superficial - didn't get a chance to like/dislike them. The romance seemed far-fetched & melodramatic at times. Good ending & concept; just didn't deliver all the goods, as they say."
"I think "Your Friends and Neighbors" is a great play and "The Shape of Things" for all its aspirations is a simple exercise in bitterness and misogyny. LaBute's ambitions are more modest here, and his misanthropy is not so insistent. Unhappy ending aside, its sort of simple and sweet. What makes LaBute's characters human is what makes them unlikeable. The central romantic pairing of the play is driven in part by the same shared spinelessness that dooms it."
"as a play its kind of brilliant, it's meaty and disjointed and wierd, but i love that and no one writes for girls who eat, and its a story that goes from exciting and hopeful to absolutely devastating in one scene... if played right."
