My favourite character is Greg. He's just so good-natured and humorous. He gets confused by women, especially Steph sometimes but you can't blame him. Despite the things he said, he's still a good guy and he still loves Steph. I love the final scene with his monologue. So much character development has shown in this character it's impressive. Steph is an awesome character too. I think Neil LaBute got the female perspective very well in this play. Two different female characters, one plain-looking and one attractive, both have their own struggle. But they are both strong, and well-rounded. Some of the fight scene are especially well done - every scene between Steph and Greg is interesting and hilarious, also the fight between Greg and Kent is also well-written. Kent is a jerk. He cheats on his wife with someone more physically attractive and justifies himself shamelessly. He also doesn't regard his wife as a worthy individual, he thinks she is his possession and the fact that she's beautiful makes him look good. Such a snob. A good play, very genuine, and the topic (how much does being pretty worth) is something I can relate to as well. this is hands down my favourite stage-play of all time. i never thought i could be so moved by theatre, but there you have it. this play spoke straight out from my heart and tackled all the issues we struggle with every day in such a real, human way, with truly touching moments, and the most hilariously witty dialogue i've ever read! i can't even express how this play made me feel, and i don't think i'm doing it justice. but this is what stories should be at the end of it - simple and real.
What do You think about Reasons To Be Pretty (2008)?
I was enjoying the charcters and I felt like the dialogue was dragging a bit at a few scenes.
