In a modest apartment in Brooklyn, two college freshmen anxiously await the arrival of their special guest. Chris (Matthew Hansen) is introducing his new girlfriend Elizabeth (Kimberly Nordstrom) to his longtime buddy David (Cameron Clarke). Alas, their night of celebration is thwarted by the death of their drug dealer, a mysterious manuscript, and a diabolic plot. Or is it?

Paul Grellong’s MANUSCRIPT will gently keep you glued to every word in this black comedy twister. As the play begins, you find yourself wishing they would get on with it. The story rambles and propels and turns and catapults with amazing dexterity, and the actors are impressive in their abilities to keep up. With MANUSCRIPT’s surprise ending, you realize the plot has been unfolding since the first word, and you have been taken on the ultimate ride. Clever and entertaining.
