George is a brilliant linguist. But he has a communication problem—with his wife, who’s about to leave him, and with his assistant, who can’t bring herself to leave him.  This quirky comedy, by one of America’s most exciting young playwrights, proves love is the one language that can leave us all at a loss for words.
