Actor Pat O'Brien has made this one-man play by Glen Berger into something of a cottage industry, having performed it several times since 2009. It remains an excellent and entertaining evening of theater -- a short evening at that. O'Brien plays a librarian who collects clues as to the whereabouts of a scofflaw who has returned a book that was 123 years overdue. As many obsessions do, this fevered pursuit leads to a greater truth. O'Brien is terrific as the nebbish and the ideas of the show are well worth your time.
