A delightful play to perform despite some of the inconsistencies in formatting Reminded me a lot of Eternal Sunshine with its loops and flashbacks Bright Half Life One hour play of birth and dissolution of relationship The play is very raw essentially no set no props and very frequent time jumps Two leading characters provide rich and layered material for any actresses playing them Bright Half Life Quantum physics a love story.
