    0:39 Waffles was a landowner nearby who, when his luck went bad, was taken in by Vanya’s family. None of the women drink.

      @@simonanderson4858 It's funny you bring that up because the film with Andrew Scott was playing at The Museum of Modern Art where I live about a month ago for a week and I wasn't able to see it. I've read some reviews of it, they are mixed, but I am curious about it and I'll stream it on Netflix or Amazon and check it out. I'll let you know what I think 🙂.

    Thank you.
    I can now 'waffle' on about Vanja at
    dinner parties and declare
    'spoiler alert' when speaking about certain plot points and come across all frickin' academic and s**t! 😅

    I stopped feeling sorry for any of them early on. They all live lives of ''quiet desperation'' and I couldn't relate.

      I hope you do to!! Be well!👍

      @TheatreDarling You've decided to diagnose me from this exchange? And you'd like me to look inward for empathy because of my critique of a play?😅
