Adapted by Dunbar from her own socially satirical play, this ridiculously funny sex farce, following the sexual misadventures of two teenaged babysitters, which admittedly on paper sounds like a product of Hustler’s Barely Legal, is in fact a nuanced, incisive, and insightful if somewhat bawdy little gem.
