Dave: How did you like the play?
Ella: I loved it! You didn't?
Jamie: Really? It was awfully long!
Ella: Yes, but all his plays are rather long
Jamie: I get it, but it's merciless, especially on Thursday
Ella: Oh my god, you sound like an old man :D
Dave: Am I the only one who found it a bit... pretentious?
Ella: Maybe, certain parts, but not in general, I don't know, I didn't mind
Dave: I can't make my mind about it, I can't say I didn't like it at all
Jamie: Well, I can. It was really nice to go out with you guys, but next time I'd rather stop at the drinks before the play and leave you to it ;)
Ella: Was it that bad?
Jamie: For me, yeah, I didn't really get what it was about
Ella: Hm, I think it was more about the performance than the meaning of the play? It was quite modern even for me
Dave: I think it's the right word - modern, a bit too modern for me as well
Dave, Ella and Jamie went to the theatre together. Jamie finds the play too long when for Dave it was a little bit pretentious. Only Ella totally enjoyed the performance.
