“Is it now? I thought I had more time.” These are the first words in the play, spoken by Guy, who knows, like all of us, on some level, that he is about to die. In this very moving and very funny play, Eno challenges what is worth celebrating and what is worth treasuring in life.
The New York Times called it, “A glowingly dark, profoundly moving new play.” Variety said WAKEY WAKEY was “A work of humor, humanity and grace that makes you want to hug your lover, your neighbor and maybe an usher on the way out. Eno breaks the fourth wall but here he also suggests a wondrous fifth.”
