Local Playwright Toni Press-Coffman Puts Some Heavenly Touches Into Her Latest Effort.
By Dave Irwin
SOMETIMES LOVE means you don t get the chance to say you re
sorry. Local playwright Toni Press-Coffman gives us one such cautionary
tale in her latest play,
Touch. On one level, it s an exploration
of nerds reaching in and finding their emotions. On a deeper level,
it s a story about finding and losing the love of your life, and
how one man reconnects after that love is taken from him. And
into the bargain, the playwright effectively questions the philosophical
stance that the cosmos is cold and uncaring.
