The Game Changer
The purpose of this first mass missive is to promote Cold Reads as an answer to the monotony of these troubled times—thanks to my recent discovery of ONLINE VIDEO CHATS. They add a whole new dimension to the game—especially now, when all the things that usually gobble up our time are on hold.

ABOUT THE PLAY
Feydeau’s classic farce is the hilarious new force behind the growing appreciation of this delightful comedy form. It was a smash hit in Paris. “La logique absurde,” as one critic called it, begins when Madame Chandebise decides to entrap her suspected husband by sending him a perfumed letter supposedly from a mysterious female admirer suggesting a rendezvous at the Hotel Pussy Cat. The wife has chosen this improbable meeting place because a package has just come from there addressed to her husband, and when she opens it (by mistake, of course) she discovers his suspenders. Then the confusions, complications, reversals, double roles, and double meanings take off!
