Santens in The Vomit Talk of Ghosts by Kevin Oakes

A classic in Italy, It is so (if you think so) is rarely performed in the United States. This is arguably Pirandello’s most powerful exploration of the nature of truth. If two people tell conflicting stories about the same event, can they both be right? It is high stakes philosophy in a hilarious comedy.
