David Ives is one hilarious man. I couldn't ask for more wit.
Simply reading the play is an absolutely, wonderfully humorous experience; I can't imagine what good some fantastic actors and perfect timing can do for it. It was definitely not what I expected, that the answer to your horrible day is, "Well, you see, you're in a state of being, a metaphysical city. It's obvious. All-you-can-eat-cheese steak." Not exactly appetizing.
The personification and description of the city as a quasi limbo is extremely clever. Who really would want to be stuck in the Philadelphia?
Heck, a Cleveland wouldn't be my first choice of being either.
