    The play, Yankee Tavern, by Steven Dietz, published by Dramatists Play Service Inc, was unquestionably some food for thought.

There are at least 12 or so people, including men and women. The game starts with a cutscene in which they're sitting at the table, having some kind of "truth or dare" game, in which they ask each other questions that get more personal and more disturbing and they have to answer honestly.…
