Greg's friends suck. I go nuts if I still break out on my chin or anything, carry tweezers in my purse, and I'm not even, like, all crazy about it like a lot of my friends are... and every one of them, the ones that I've called, at least, they all said to dump him.

This is by far my favorite play. I think LaBrute did this on purpose. She sets the conflict in motion, spreading gossip about Greg's supposedly true feelings. Carly es físicamente atractiva, y lo vive como una especie de carga; Kent, obsesionado con la belleza femenina, ve su relación con Carly como una marca de estatus, pero también persigue activamente relaciones con otras mujeres. It is funny and shocking and sad all at the same time. Ironically, whenever Carly is not around, Kent is far more demeaning and derogatory than Greg. His first horror film, it starred Nicolas Cage and Ellen Burstyn and was released on September 1, 2006 by Warner Bros. Pictures to scathing critical reviews and mediocre box office.
My first, Fat Pig, felt too fast while Reasons to Be Pretty spend along with energy with overlapping dialogue and even the way this play started had the reader thrown into the moment. Personal preference aside this play does a good job tackling what it's like to try and fit into a beauty standard and what happens when you lose that confidence.

While his get-the-last-word-in lines during each of Greg's arguments with Steph are brimming with meanness, the actor's charisma goes a long way toward softening their blows; despite his flaws, Causer is so appealing that it's easy to forgive Greg's verbally abusive treatment of Steph. It's not like a math equation or anything, it is fairly simple — you can't be with a guy who finds you unpleasant to look at.
