Review: Easy Outs, or the Adventures of Alphonse on the Lam

Easy Outs has been lost for more than 30 years; Russell Dobular and EndTimes Productions deserve major kudos for finding it. It’s a hilarious, smart, and still timely satire by Chip Keyes about a young man named Alphonse who, in 1969, decides to dodge the draft and move to a "small neutral peace-loving country" (that he read about in National Geographic) to become a simple craftsman. The play is in need of some editing, though, and the production is somewhat scattershot.
