Because, as playwright Alice Tuan said: “Play-LABS, get it?” Jason Gray Platt named all the drinks. Alice’s was the “Tuan-too-Many.” Mine was: I have adored this woman in three different cities, and we made a household together in one. To her new life in Minneapolis, (as well as PlayLabs), I raise a test-tube:
